<p>^^^My question exactly. My son entered his public hs from a more challenging school, so he was ahead of the curriculum in a couple of fields. He took 3 AP courses his sophomore year and six his junior year. He had plenty of time for other activities, many many other activities. He enjoyed school, got great grades. Was it for everyone? Of course not. It certainly would not work for my current 10th grader. But why deny the opportunity for those who can handle more and want to handle more?</p>
