[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe this "holistic" approach is why AAP standards have gone down so much. It is ridiculous that someone with a 135 FSIQ wouldn't get in. I can understand why GBRS can be used to support kids who may have had a bad testing day but who have consistently shown a very strong work ethic or strong analytical skills... but to exclude kids who make the pool or are above cutoff scores in the WISC? I don't get why anyone thinks this is a good system.[/quote] It's not that they are excluded. It's that they do not need the program and are better in the general education classes. The program has always been like this, this isn't new. - parent of one kid who needs the program and one who doesn't. [/quote] A kid with a 135 FSIQ doesn't need the program, while the well-organized neat child with the 122 cogat does? Because of the teacher GBRS? Sorry, it doesn't make sense. [/quote]
