How many 2nd graders get into AAP for 3rd?

[Anonymous]

Seems like at my child's school, everyone that applies gets into AAP. We're a center school btw and not under capacity. I only knew of 2-3 kids that didn't get in.

We’re at a center and that’s definitely not the case. I think 4 of DCs class of 28 got in.

I have no skin in the game; my kid are in AAP but your post is just meant to rile people including parents who are processing denials right now. I call troll or stupid or both. I’ll go with both

Op here. Gosh, I am not trolling. Out of 15 people I know that applied, me and 2 others were denied. Meaning 12 kids got in.

Ok then my apologies. There are a lot of arrogant parents on this board. We are also at a center school and under capacity. I don’t know the full universe but most people have volunteered to me that their kids did not get in, and frankly, I’m very surprised at some of these outcomes. I do think it’s a crapshoot because some of these kids seem really bright.

In our center school last year, out of 70 second graders, maybe 20 got in.

Op here. Our appeal was denied too. Will definitely try to reapply next year. My kid's just feeling a little left out since all her friends got in.

What's your relationship with her teacher? GBRS matters more than test scores.

I guess we know why your kid didn't get in, LOL

You already know that there isn’t going to be a class of 2 Gen ED kids so why post this? It may feel like everyone else got in, but you know that’s false.

At our school, about 30% get in for 3rd. By 6th, it’s closer to 40-45% of the kids in level iv. I didn’t do actual numbers though. This is a guesstimate.

very school specific though... since only ~20% of the county is in AAP. Our Chantilly feeder school had 85 2nd graders. 13 got in, and almost all of them are center-bound rather than staying in LLIV. Not sure how many applied.

That's not the norm. The best way is to check how many AAP and Non-AAP classes your school has in 3rd grade. We have 2 AAP and 3 Non-AAP classes.

I heard this comment from my neighbour quite often, "lots of kids should not have been in AAP IV at all". She used to be a school teacher.

Tell her she should have been a better teacher.
