Will you ask for a retake of CoGAT next fall?

Will you talk to the principal about pupil placement?

Will you?

I think I will sue FCPS and drag my child through a nasty court battle. Nobody puts baby in a corner of a gen ed classroom. Besides, I need something to fill my time so I can feel competent as a parent.

Are gifted private schools like Edwin and Nysmith just as good as AAP? I figure these schools will take a more holistic approach

? Send your kid to the gen ed program. They clearly don’t qualify as “gifted”. And they will be just fine.

+1. Make sure you contact your local newspaper and Congressman to file a complaint. Go big or go home.

You take some steps back and try to accept your kid for who she or he is and enjoy your child and do what is best for your child NOT your EGO. You get some perspective. You understand a kid can be bright, but may be better suited for General ed than AAP. You get over yourself.

Enjoy your child, OP.

My child has a 140 IQ. So no, my kid is more than bright and not better suited for Gen Ed. So you can get over youself.

Real answer: go to gen ed 3rd grade and apply again. There are plenty of excellent base schools in FCPS.
