[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I found this forum last year after getting NNAT scores home and googling them to figure out what they were and why we should care.

Enjoy first grade. Enjoy your child. Don’t over think things. You kid will take to CogAT next year. You will have to decide if you want to include the parental questionnaire and the like next year. You child will be fine no matter what program they are.

For now sit back and watch those of us with second graders lose our shit over the silly process. Vow not tobe us next year and see what happens.  [/quote]

Theres a parent form?  So they want a NNAT, COGAT, GBRS, and a parent form?

and wth is this WISC reference I am seeing around here??[/quote]

There is a parent referal form for kids not in pool.

There is a voluntary parent questionnaire.

Parents can submit their own work samples.

The school does the GBRS and work samples for all in pool and referred kids.

The WISC is a separate exam that you can have your child sit with a psychiatrist. It costs around $500. Many people use it for appeals. Some people have it done for other reasons and might use it with a referral in the first wave of applications.[/quote]

Oh.  Thanks.

So the school doesnt do a GBRS for each kid, only kids who have scored high enough on either or both tests to be considered "in pool" or who have been referred and from there ...some panel makes the call as to which kids can go to AAP?

Do I have that right?  If yes, if my kid does ok on CogAT but the GBRS is just ok (again he has ADHD) will the NNAT score likely mean the panel or whoever still places him into AAP?  or is that just one of those behind the curtain type deals that no one ever really can tell
