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]

Thank you for the advice. Ok - I'll give GMU a call and see what they can do.

Thanks for pointing out the iReady - I had largely ignored it because we didn't get a report on that from the school. The scores in the AAP submission differ from those in his ParentVue account: 66 "Reading Lexile Level" (this doesn't make any sense - maybe it means the percentile?) and 98 for Math Quintile Level (again - aren't there just 5 quintiles?). The raw scores in ParentVue seem in the "on grade level" for math and a grade behind (?!) in reading according to what I can find online about ranges. Standardized tests from the prior school and school year consistently show high 80s percentile for language/reading and high 90s for math.

As to the pyramid -  I had to look this up - and it looks like we're in a more competitive pyramid.[/quote]

Based on iready and prior testing, and being in a more competitive pyramid, your child looks like a level III in math, on paper. I’d get the WISC done and submit work samples to support higher level ability in reading/writing to counter those scores. I’d also Check in with the teacher to see if there are winter reading iready scores you can add to the appeal.[/quote]
