[quote=Anonymous]You need to be careful how you frame it. If the child is experiencing anxiety due to an unmet need for similar peers, or other reason related to being in general education, this is a strong argument they need AAP to thrive. If it is unrelated, you should still explain the impact on grades, but you need to be sure you also explain how you have already addressed the issue. Otherwise, the committee might be worried there is an untreated/unmitigated anxiety issue and adding a more advanced curriculum on top of that could be hard on the child. That's my 2 cents as a parent of an anxious kid who is so much happier and healthier in AAP with similar peers who "get" their quirks.[/quote]
