[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think pointing out the flaws with the system, such as running essentially an honors program and then excluding a large percentage of kids who are more than capable of handling it, is bashing. That's the great thing about living in this country, freedom of speech. And yes, I have a child in AAP and see the work they do, and it's an honors program, [b]not a gifted program[/b].[/quote] who the f**k claims it is a “gifted program.”? but it is selective - so only the smartest and most precocious get in :D [/quote] Fairfax County claims it's a gifted program. They specifically said that the name change from GT to AAP did not affect its status as a gifted program, but indicated that the program was for academically gifted kids, not kids gifted in other areas. That is why they still use the NNAT, CogAT, and Gifted Behavior Rating Scores for admission.[/quote]
