[quote=Anonymous]Can't tell if these negative posters have kids in AAP and bragged about how great they are or if you hope to soon have a child in AAP and are looking forward to bragging. If you've been all the way through the process you know that it's hard to give your kids a straight answer when some parents push their way into AAP. I ended up telling my kid it was for kids who learn quickly and kids who already read well and know a lot of math. (That's basically what it has become now that they let in such a big percentage.). But this didn't ring true for the boy in my daughter's class who she saw struggle all year in math AND reading and who I happen to know didn't test even close to the cut-off on either test. His parents did cartwheels during the appeals process to get him in. [/quote]
