AAP Packet available yet?

Yeah that's not true. I have DD's packet.

We were informed that we can request packets AFTER eligibility decisions from our school. However the AAP universal screener email said we can request in March 2025 after they've submitted them. Who know? We've waited this long.. we can wait a few more days..

The teacher ratings shouldn’t be allowed. When our oldest daughter entered third grade, there were only something like 4 boys in each of the AAP classes and around 12 girls. This led to gen ed classes having a lot more boys than girls. While I’m glad that the pendulum has shifted and girls are now valued academically, this was ridiculous. It wasn’t fair to either the boys or the girls left behind in the gen ed classes. The girls are now stuck in classes with a disproportionate number of badly behaved boys who can’t be split up because there aren’t enough gen ed classes to put them all in, and the boys are set up to fail behaviorally by being surrounded by all the bad influence. I hope to get our younger one in this year. This is at Poplar Tree. Not sure how it is other schools but I really hate how FCPS does AAP.

Wow, I wish my son had a few more girls in his AAP class. The girls are out numbered 3 to 1 in his year (4th).
