[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this is an old thread, but I’m also looking for advice on our appeal process. We transferred into the district from out of state and did an off-cycle AAP request in October. My kid had a CogAT composite score of 147 (99th percentile), sub components ranged from 94-99th percentile, so nothing was particularly weak. We just got the rejection. GBRS was totally mid-range, lots of “sometimes”. Class samples pretty average as well. Fall iReady scores were included but we don’t have prior year tests like NNAT. I did the parent questionnaire originally but didn’t submit home samples. We disclosed an ADHD diagnosis and submitted the 504 plan.

I don’t think we have time for an outside WISC assessment before the appeal deadline (and we’re on the fence about paying for one anyway). So- sounds like our best bet is to find better home samples and maybe school samples from the prior school and provide a really good cover letter explaining why the normal classroom can’t fulfill their needs? I have other standardized test scores from the prior school - should I include those as well?[/quote]

When is the appeals deadline? Call GMU to see what can be done. Also, put together some good work samples and maybe revise your parent form examples of things your dc has said/done that are consistent with needing full-time AAP services.

How were the i-Ready scores? The CogAT score is impressive. Are you in a very competitive pyramid? [/quote]
