[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The curriculum is not "better"--it is appropriate for the kids who are at that particular learning level.

A curriculum designed for English Language Learners is not "better" or "worse" than the standard curriculum. It is the appropriate curriculum for the child with those particular learning requirements.

[b]If testing results indicate that the student would benefit from AAP, they will benefit from it. If testing results don't indicate that, they will be served by the standard curriculum[/b].[/quote]

What about those kids whose tests results show they "would benefit from AAP" [in the pool] but don't get in?  What about those kids whose test results show they "would not benefit from AAP" [not in the pool] and do get in?[/quote]

I know - this can be so confusing and frustrating.  I've personally noticed that the ones that "would benefit from AAP" [in the pool] but don't get in a lot of times appeal and get in at some point along their elementary years.  The ones that "would not benefit from AAP" [not in the pool] are more of a mix - some do just as well as the ones who initially were in the pool, and some struggle so much to a point that they leave the program.
