[quote=Anonymous]Hi all. My son is in 3rd grade and AAP in FCPS. His teacher has mentioned on more than one occassion that she doesn't believe he belongs in the program. I know my son. I know he's not brilliant, but he is intelligent. But that doesn't come out in school. In school, he has some anxiety, social skills issues (on the Spectrum, HF) and possibly has ADHD. It doesn't seem like things sink in at school. He's not motivated. He does the absolute minimum and just turns it in. He has horrible work habits (which is difficult to deal with at home too, he's so defiant!). To top it off, he's not an outside the box thinker. I know that he is capable of far more than he's doing and showing. When he works on his Math homework for instance, I see him struggling with Math he would do in his head 2 years ago. To be honest, I feel like being in school with 28 other kids is just not the place for him but I just can't homeschool him because of his defiance. Anyway, we have a meeting coming up and I know the teacher will again recommend that I not put him in AAP next year. What would you do? TIA.[/quote]
