Exactly. The AART called me to tell me about the recommendation (and ask my permission) in May of my daughter’s first grade year. Level III services have been in place for my second grader since the first day of the 2017-18 school year.

What’s the difference between Levels II, III AND IV? Our letter says IV.

In for level IV; parent and teacher referral.

NNAT 123
CoGat: I forget

No GBRS. So I guess it was the portfolio and maybe good SOL performance? It is a mystery.

22102 zip code.

Level II offers differentiated lessons
Level III is part-time AAP (usually for grades 3-6)

My second grader has received level III services all year. Is now eligible for Level IV (full-time AAP) in third through sixth grades.

Wow. I'm surprised. The CogAT is good and the WISC is 134. Was your DC in FCPS. Where did you do the WISC?

Level 4 is what most people mean when they speak of AAP. Could be at an AAP center or in a local level 4 program.

Level 3 is pull outs from a gen ed. class. Level 2 is differentiation in the classroom. Level 1 is whole-class lessons. (like the AART doing a single presentation/thinking class for the entire classroom).

Obviously this was not a surprise but sharing for a data point. DC has a 123 WISC that we will appeal with because we have it and why not. Hopefully Level III/Advanced math will be a positive option.


Where did you get the WISC done?

DP. It sounds like a good school. It also sounds like PP's DC won't be happy in AAP either.


Our hope is that she will be challenged enough there, that it won't make her entirely miserable. She is definitely math brained, and motivated to do more than is expected of her. I went through the third grade curriculum, and she knows most of the material, but there are definitely gaps (social studies, for instance), so she will learn more for sure. Same with fourth grade material; there are bigger gaps, and while math would be relatively easy, fractions, decimals, and percentages are the bane of her existence, so there should be enough there to keep her challenged, or at least, occupied.

If not, we can always go back. It's kind of stupid to spend money to send a kid to elementary school, when there are perfectly good public schools available, but at the same time, I want her to see schools as a place to learn, not a place to get bored out of her mind, so if that's what we have to do, that's what we have to do.

Yes, in FCPS. WISC was done by FCPS and IEP included recommendation by the psychologist for advance placement (academic testing was 99% too). I'll be curious to see what the GBRS is but I wasn't worried b/c teacher recommended referral and currently receives level II. Guess I was wrong...
