[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There should be no classes where FCPS states that other children cannot be in. Class sizes are being skewed because AAP students at centers are being guaranteed a class with no other children besides other AAP students.  AAP students should be guaranteed classes with other AAP students. That is as far as they should go. No other school should have greater class sizes because general ed and AAP students at center schools can't mix in the slightest.[/quote]

What are you talking about?  Music?  Strings? PE?  Those are all mixed between AAP and gen ed.

Or are you saying [b]AAP and non-AAP should be mixed in the core subjects, math, science, writing, etc?[/b][/quote]

Not the OP, but that's exactly what needs to happen.  If all manner of abilities can be mixed in the Gen Ed classes, why not mix the AAP kids in as well?  Why is it that they are given their own classrooms and do not interact with other abilities in the core subjects, yet the typical Gen Ed student is expected to learn alongside kids with learning disablities/special needs?

Teachers have a hard enough time differentiating, that would be a disaster.  I think they need to do tracking in Gen Ed also so the teachers can really help the kids according to where they are academically.[/quote]
