[quote=Anonymous]No one said anyone's child is unexceptional....just that their 'stats' were unexceptional. The goal of the central screening committee is to identify children, based on a county wide testing program and classroom behavior scale, that are deemed most likely to benefit from a different learning environment. It's not full proof, and I'm sure some kids fall through the cracks... But really, they are supposed to be looking at the numbers and making determinations - with the numbers being test scores and gbrs. Not every child is meant for this particular program, although based on some of these threads, parents will do just about anything to get their kids in - whether they really belong in that environment or not. The committee members are dedicated sand experienced educators who are doing the best they can with these selections.[/quote]
