[quote=Anonymous]I don't think AAP should raise the bar for admission until they address the lack of level III services. My current second grader receives level III services, which is pullout small group work, one hour, twice a month. I don't think DC would get any more in 3-6 grade. The current system is set up so that level IV gets full day services, while the rest of the advanced learners barely get any services. I don't think my child is in the top 1%, but gen Ed classes are designed for the middle of the road child. Unless they start offering more services for the 70-99% group, parents of children in this "advanced" group will continue to prep, appeal, and otherwise work within the system to get their children in AAP. It's not fair that the top 1% should receive so much more assistance than children who are also advanced, just not to the same degree. [/quote]
