[quote=Anonymous]Welcome! You are correct AAP is the same as 'gifted and talented'. It's a little more complex than a yes or no. You should read about it on the FCPS website - lots of good info about the program. Kids in the system are given the Naglieri test in 1st grade and the Cogat in 2nd grade. These scores along with teacher "ratings" (known as the GSRB on the board) are used in determening whether a student is in the pool of candidates for AAP. Not all kids in the pool are offered a spot in AAP and kids not in the pool can have their parents submit extra information for consideration (usually private WISC testing). It's a rediculously complicated system that gets most FCPS parents in a tizzy. [/quote]
