[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't believe the profiles list the students who are in Level 4 classrooms, but are not center eligible. [b]The number listed under each profile for AAP should be the actual number of AAP eligible students.[/b][/quote]

I agree with your "should be" statement but I do not think it is consistent from school to school.

I refer you to the Local Level IV Center eligibility data presented at the July 18, 2009 School Board retreat:

As you can see from Attachment A, there are several Local Level IV programs schools that historically had many Level IV Center eligible students:

Let's take the number of Center eligible students as less than 25 (over several grades) as a start -- I just picked 5 schools to make it easy:

Braddock ES
Cameron ES
Columbia ES
Glen Forest ES
Washington Mill ES

Now, go to Student Profiles and see how many of the students at these schools are listed as Advanced Academics - Level IV students in the last school year:

Braddock ES = 66
Cameron ES = 25
Columbia ES = 39
Glen Forest ES = 14
Washington Mill ES = 9

Some of these pass the smell test, while others do not. Now whether they SHOULD BE counted consistently, that's a whole other question. :D
