[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Small school. Kids are very aware if they are the smart kids in AAP or they're not. Awful. The whole FCPS model of centers, of separating kids in 3rd grade is awful. My fault I didn't know enough when we moved to FCPS. Would not have moved here.[/quote]

Which school?[/quote]

Maybe your fault for not having a smart kid?  :roll: [/quote]

Even if you have a "smart" kid, they need to learn to get on with the rest of the world. Segregating them or any other subgroup of kiddos isn't right. I see that as a huge issue with FFX schools. There's a box for everyone and everyone stays in their box.[/quote]

Not FCPS student, but I was tracked in school for most classes.  Much better experience as I was able to relate to my peers in those classes in terms of social interests, and quickness on their feet.  Work in high technology now and prefer not to mix with "normal" people.[/quote]

And you think this is good for society because?[/quote]

I put myself and my kids before society at large. I presume most people aren't sacrificing their kids for the benefit of society at large.

Socially speaking, highly intelligent people aren't really well liked by normal people, unless they have high emotional intelligence, or conceal their mental faculties.  Putting kids into a higher level program will keep them from being bored and encourages them to keep on learning rather than be disruptive.[/quote]
