[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I'm sorry but I have one AAP and one not and I have to say, the one who is not (but is not LD/ED, tests around the 80th -85th percentile) is the one who loses out. That child sits through mind numbing worksheets and waits around for the bottom of the class to catch up. My AAP kid has a challenging curriculum and fun activities. [/b]Seriously. You have to stop with the whinging about the AAP kids getting the shaft. The kids getting the shaft are the bright but non-AAP kids who are in totally dumbed down classes because the top kids are skimmed off. The kids who seem to be essentially written off by FCPS because they will pass the SOLS so there is no need to spend time on them, but they are not "gifted."[/quote] Which is why we'll be spending a couple of hours going through the Mercer NNAT book with our younger child. Oh, and to the poster who keeps cutting and pasting the exact same posting on how it is better to go to the Smithsonian than to test prep -- The Smithsonian is closed. [/quote]
