[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Each school should be staffed with a full time AART, not sure why FCPS allows principals to do this. It is red flag that a principal does not care about high achieving kids.[/quote]

This is the funniest post ever! You think that principals are sitting around with buckets of money and decide NOT to hire full-time AARTs. That is seriously funny.

Here’s the scoop: It’s a staffed position, just like the counselor position or school based technology specialist position. It’s dependent on your school’s enrollment. Now a principal technically could used school funds—the same funds to buy paper, materials, desks, toilet paper,etc—to “buy” an additional half of an AART position. But typically there are more pressing needs like trying to find a math specialist or an additional reading teacher. Or an IA to help cover all the substitutes that don’t show.  Principals would LOVE to have a full-time AART and NOT have to pay for it out of their materials budget. Title 1 schools finally got one this year.
