[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the OP's question misunderstands the local school's role in the selection process. If your local school has Level IV AAP, the school will be motivated to make sure enough of their own students get in to AAP (so that they can fill their class, and also tout the strength of their own AAP program so that they can "compete" with the Center school). This means they will be highly motivated to produce high quality files that are sent off to the County for AAP selection process. When the local school sends these packets off, they have no idea which students (if selected) will choose the local school, and which will choose the Center school. So there really is no way for them to game the system. Once the AAP selections are made, it is completely 100% up to the parent to decide whether the child will attend the Center or the Local program. The local school has no power over that decision (other than the power of persuasion). At that point, it is really irrelevant whether the local school "supports" the child going to the center or not. The decision is up to the parent. [/quote] Agree 100%. That's why I don't get what kind of "support" the OP was actually expecting.[/quote]
