[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should speak with someone at your school about the specifics. None of us know exactly how it works at your school.

You seem to be a little confused about how some things work re: AAP (and possibly the advanced math). For example, if your kid was "in pool" you wouldn't have had to "apply."  He would have automatically been screened. [/quote]

I only meant to convey background information re: DC's scores and what not so as to see if other people were in the same position. The AAP vs. Advanced are different things.  "Advanced" was not utilized last year, you were either AAP or not.  This year, the "advanced" is a limited class (likely due to having no space at our overcrowded school) and is for non-AAP kids.

I did not intend this post to focus on the AAP, pool, or how smart people think my kid is or what she's ready for . . . I'm not pushing the school to include DC in the advanced class if the "requirements" weren't satisfied. Fine.  I'm looking at this point for what I could ask the school for, if anything, in terms of supplementing in class and/or at home.  Was hoping someone had been there/done that.  [/quote]
