[quote=Anonymous]My son received an invitation to our local AAP center for 3rd grade. He is a very bright boy, but also has an IEP for autism/ADHD. He learns quickly and is academically curious, but his poor executive functioning makes organization and motivation a real challenge. He is definitely "gifted" in many ways, but he does not fit my idea of a good student. He has an amazing memory and seems to absorb facts and details like a sponge. He asks "Why?" about everything and is like a walking/talking encyclopedia. However, getting him to complete his homework is a huge struggle and he lacks internal motivation to complete assignments. I would love to hear from parents of similar kids in AAP. Is AAP a better "fit" than your base school was? [/quote]
