We are doing DL and also have a rising 2nd grader.

It's the law to have the kids be given equal education opportunities so I'm sure they'd have the DL kids be given  an equal opportunity (like take the cogat or be evaluated without a score) to get into AAP.

It's a complete no brainer. FCPS would get sued so many ways in lawsuits they'd lose so badly if they set up a system where kids with asthma, health problems, had no way to get into AAP.

Looking at my older child who is in AAP and having volunteered so much in the classroom before and after AAP center, I'd say there are far less behavior problems in the AAP center classroom and they are much better suited for distance learning. It's possible that a lot of parents with gifted kids will choose DL just because it was not a bad situation in the Spring. My kids had no problem focusing for the hour and they were happy.

There is no answers right now and I have to have faith that if your kid is smart, they will get in regardless of what choice you make.[/quote]

Kids need to be in school, even or especially gifted kids. Send them.[/quote]

You've obviously never met a gifted child.[/quote]

Agree. Gifted kids are usually hyper. [/quote]
