[quote=Anonymous]I am the poster who received the snark.   Thanks for the support.  I started this whole process knowing nothing.  I was not anticipating the AAP pool, did not even really know that much about how the process went.  I was not surprised by ds' test scores, but did not fully understand them either.   It was as I went through the process, and the appeal first year (without WISC) that I began to see how this really tended to work.  I let the county make their decision their way, even if I did not agree. (plus doing the WISC would have been a $$ stretch).  I imagine I spent too much time on this board too, which only made me feel I had shortchanged my son for not ordering the WISC (since I did feel he really needed the challenge).  Anyway, the point I was trying to get across to OP is that it varies GREATLY what services are offered out of AAP.  This was the main impetus for us choosing to return our youngest to our neighborhood school.  It is a school with lower test scores, but a full time AART and Young Scholars program.  Though my younger ds is not among the under represented minority target for this program, I am already seeing that he is reaping the rewards.[/quote]
