Elementary Enrichment Pull-Out Classes offer more depth and breadth than the regular classroom and move at a faster pace. Classes meet one-half day each week and provide an opportunity for gifted students to be with other students who learn, think and perceive in the same way they do. Teaching units are based on a theme or concept that incorporates higher level thinking, problem solving, and research skills

Middle Schools

Enrichment is an elective course taught by a teacher who specializes in gifted and talented education. The subject matter varies from school to school, and is differentiated to meet the needs of learners in content, process and product. Middle schools also offer Pre-AP courses in mathematics beginning in the 6th grade and English beginning in the 8th grade. Other opportunities include Proficiency Based Promotion, independent study, special groupings, dual enrollment with a high school, creative and academic competitions, and the Duke Talent Search.

Half day pull outs once per week? 97% test score in Edmund for automatic enrollment vs 98% just to apply in fcps?

This does not sound like a superior program to me.

Sounds a lot like the program in Texas I did, back in elementary school. That was 1 day per week, so slightly more. AAP is quite different from this sort of program, better or worse, I can't say. But very different.[/quote]
