[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Wait for the CoGAT results.

If in pool wait and see.  If selected, done. If not, appeal with the WISC.

This is not possible this year. They've told us that CogAT scores will not be back to the parents before the referral deadline. I'd submit WISC with the referral.[/quote]

That precludes you from using it as new information on appeal. You're giving up an option.

Maybe you won't need to appeal, but where's the downside in having an additional option?[/quote]

This is because PP does not understand the process.

It is:

1. in-pool or parent referral evaluation; and
2. appeal if denied during stage 1.

I agree with you on holding back the WISC.

Because of the tight deadline this year with the Cogat scores coming back, the best course of action for any family that is interested in AAP is to parent refer without waiting for the Cogat score - yeah, it makes for more work for the AART and the central committee, but it's FCPS' fault for moving up the deadline.

Note that when you parent refer for Stage 1 you *do not* have to include the WISC.[/quote]
