[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK my husband says his understanding is that if they do away with AAP centers, there will be no Level IV anywhere.  I'm lost.[/quote]

Your husband is wrong. [/quote]

I think people get confused and think that only centers are Level IV and anything at the base school is level III, which is not the case.  The local level IV curriculum is supposed to be of the same caliber as the center program.  If it's different, it's an implementation issue rather than an issue of having a different curriculum because they are different levels.   [/quote]

The intended curriculum at LLIV is the same as the Level IV Center. The peer groups are different.[/quote]

The peer group was the original, and still most important, part of Level IV. The curriculum is a nice bonus, although many people have gotten too focused on the curriculum. So Local Level IV just isn't the same.[/quote]

The kids in local level IV are determined with the same standards.  The committee has no clue who will opt for the center and who will stay at the local level IV.  I'm not sure why the peer group would be so different in schools that can fill classes locally without having to include level III kids.  I think things will be fine if centers are eliminated.[/quote]
