[quote=Anonymous]How exactly do children get selected for AAP? I know children can get referred and I hear this is common, as are appeals. I hear about the tests they take in first and second grade (NNAT3, CogAT), but then I hear they "aren't important". So what is? Does it vary by pyramid or school? Is it disadvantageous to be at a higher-performing school within a pyramid or within the county? To put in another way, if I wanted my child to have their best shot at getting into AAP, what should I do? I wasn't planning on intensive prepping anyway but is there any value in prepping? And for what tests? What other things might be (more) important? We haven't settled yet on where DC will go to school for first grade (are renting) and we want to take all of this into account.
