[quote=Anonymous]I agree with 16:18. Unless you have a full scale IQ of 130+, I would not even bother with appeals. It is a waste of your time, will cause more frustration and heartache and will not change the result. Instead, allow your student to mature a year and nominate him/her again. LCPS perspective is that this process is not to determine IF your child is gifted...it is, rather, to determine IF your child is in need of additional educational services (think of it as special education) to address his/her academic needs. Also, keep in mind that behavioral and psychosocial elements can work for/against a student in this process. One of the brightest children I know (full scale IQ: 157) could NEVER handle a pull out center program, and therefore, was eliminated from the screening pool. Good luck![/quote]
