[quote=Anonymous]I think the cutoff is somewhat arbitrary/random. Kids don't fit neatly into buckets of "advanced" or "not advanced" - there is a spectrum, and some kids may be more advanced in one area vs another. So, IME, the truly advanced kids tend to end up in AAP. The kids who truly do not need advanced services tend to end up in gen ed. The randomness is in the 'grey zone' cases - where to draw the line between AAP and general. Those cases are where you'll hear the most controversy and discussion, because they aren't always obvious or straightforward. They represent a small fraction of the kids in school - maybe a few percent - but a huge fraction of the discussion.[/quote]
