It was created awhile back specifically at the behest of people on the Va. School Forum who were tired of all the posts about scores needed to get into AAP.
So a separate section was created. There will always be an AAP program even if centers are done away with.

There would be no craziness if this were not a playground for hateful posters who have no connection to the program. Why are you here anyway if it causes you pain?

There have been a lot of hateful.posers in here.

Because there's little activity over at Fairfax Underground.

This forum is not just for AAP centers but for the AAP program. Even if centers are eliminated, schools will still have AAP, levels 2, 3 and 4. So no, this section should not be removed.

Your ignorance is showing. MoCo has highly gifted centers.

Thanks maybe you should use that energy to help out the MoCo section and open their own special supper section.

Not the PP, but every single FCPS taxpayer has a "connection to the program". Those of us whose children attend centers as their base schools, have a particular connection to this program, even if our kids aren't in AAP. The AAP/GE dynamic affects everything at those schools, especially socially.

This forum is a place where parents come to express their thoughts about AAP, even if those thoughts aren't spoken aloud very often IRL.

I don't think you're really paying attention. No one's mentioned doing away with AAP.

OH MY GOD.
