[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am sure some parents were surprised that my DC was AAP eligible. He was in reading remediation in 1st and 2nd grade and his handwriting was well below the mark. However, that is because many parents erroneously think reading ability is highly correlated to intelligence. [/quote] The program is called Advanced ACADEMIC program. If you can be behind academically and still be enrolled in AAP then the name of the program should be called intellectually gifted program. After volunteering in my child's AAP class, I think the program should really be for kids who are are working at least 2 to 3 grade levels above their peers. I was surprised to see weak readers in the class who slow down the pace of instruction for the others who are reading at a 6th grade level and above in third grade.[/quote]
