[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do think it’s always worth a try since the whole system is kind of a crap shoot anyways. Don’t put down the teachers, but show a need for project based learning, extensions, and social differences. Anecdotally, I have known many people to appeal and only 1 to get in on appeal, but that’s just our local experience. [/quote]

This.  I described how my child was fascinated by history and needed the opportunity to dive deeper into the subject matter.  I described how my child would thrive through more experiential and project based learning rather than rote.  I gave examples of how my child was inspired by motivated peers to go above and beyond, but also how my child would tune out if they found the material too easy.  I described some of my child's quirky interests and how they would socially struggle in a regular classroom.  Mine did get in on appeal.  If you drop enough of the right buzzwords, the appeals panel is more likely to admit your kid.  [/quote]
