[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are at an elementary where our kid gets pulled out a couple times a week (1x a week per subject usually) but it’s a smaller school.  We haven’t found it to be nothing.

In general it’s a more push in model in APS.

Which school? We were told pull out isn’t an option in APS. [/quote]

Pull out is not supposed to be an option, but there are some schools/staff members that don't play by the rules and make the other schools look like they aren't providing anything to advanced learners. Most schools are abiding by the model of the push-in/collaborative model, but there's always a few that march the the beat of their own drum even when it is not seen as best practices in education.[/quote]

Best practices according to whom? 
From my experience, the APS-touted "push in" model is the one where the regular teacher does remedial for the kids that are behind, while the GT teacher comes in to take care of everyone else, just doing the regular basic stuff.[/quote]
