[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Usually if the principal placed them, they are more than exemplary students....much better than many aap eligible imho.[/quote]

In some cases the student didn't have the cogat/nnat score but demonstrate high levels of creative and critical thinking as well as grit and determination to suceed.

for teachers the downside of local level IV is they lack peers teaching the AAP curriculum so they don't have as many opportunities for collaboration. [/quote]

The reality is the school can not afford half filled classes.  If the school has 15 kids in AAP, they will add non-aap to balance out.  In some cases, they will place per subject (particularly math), in others, they will add a kid to the class.  The problem is principal place into the level iv class room does not guarantee anything for future years.[/quote]

except being a principal placement student usually guarantees that they will be reevaluated in the following year to see if  they qualify for level 4 in the following year[/quote]
