[quote=Anonymous]How so? One of the audit results pointed to the creation of a program that meets the needs of the top 10% of the kids at each school. The new selection process reflects that. Kids are not distributed to Centers evenly throughout the County, they are distributed based on their base school. The in-pool scores for each Center are probably pretty similar so you should end up with cohorts at Centers with similar scores and their AAP program is reaching the 10% that need a more advanced program. Honestly, I think that is exactly what the program should be doing. It shouldn't be a surprise that the top 10% in McLean looks different then the top 10% in Herndon. The Top 10% in a title 1 school will look different then the top 10% in a High SES school. Honestly, that shouldn't impact a kid in a High SES school because that kid has a Gen Ed cohort that is ahead of the Title 1 cohort. And I doubt that the parent of a High SES kid wants their kid in a Title 1 AAP program because the kids are at a different place and i would bet that the Teachers adjust the curriculum to fit the needs of the kids in that program.
