[quote=Anonymous]The average IQ in Fairfax County is a bit higher than the average IQ nationally. The area is full of educated professionals, our SAT scores (a good proxy for IQ) are higher than average, etc. So it's not surprising that the gifted population here should be higher than 2%. 17% actually sounds about right. Besides which, AAP is Fairfax County's implementation of the VA state regulations on gifted education, so it is a gifted program. To those who say it's not, please name a "real" gifted program. Have you seen what other counties do? One hour pullouts once a week, for brainteaser worksheets? If AAP is not a real gifted program, it's the closest thing by a long way to one in this area if not the country.[/quote]
