[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP generally is shorthand for the full-time Level IV services, which are not subject based, you’re in it or you’re in General Ed (caveat for exceptions with year-by-year principal placement at non-center schools). You need to apply for this program if interested in it when moving into FCPS, for how you do so go here:

Levels II and III are subject-based and, as that same page linked above describes, those assessments are handled by the school once your student is on-site.

Just flagging that meeting with the AART is Step 3 in the process described on the FCPS website (linked in prior post).  _If_ you think you want to pursue AAP LIV, then I'd suggest following the described process (i.e., not skipping steps 1 and 2). If you think LII/III is appropriate (as it sounds like you are inclined) then you're fine with that approach, but you're limiting your option for LIV this year, as the student would be placed into a Gen Ed classroom and seems it would run the risk of a longer timeline and higher bar to move them over to an AAP classroom once they've already started this school year in a Gen Ed classroom. They have the pre-enrollment process described in that link for a reason.[/quote]
