[quote=Anonymous]The school work samples are crap. But you can't do anything about it. So just focus on what you can control. Get good work samples for yourself to submit and fill out the parent info sheet with a lot of good, thoughtful detail. You're right, the school and the teacher don't know your kid like you know your kid so give as much good info as you can. In our situation, we had a first year teacher who knew nothing about my child. The comments on the GBRS made that very clear. They were either very generic or they rehashed comments I had put on my parent info form. The work samples were atrocious. We reapplied in third grade with new CogAT scores and work samples of our own (we could submit up to four I believe at the time) and she got in. However, if you're thinking you'll get more homework in AAP, that is not always the case. My AAP 6th grader has none. [/quote]
