[quote=Anonymous]We got in on appeal. I felt that we hadn't put in a good work sample, and his teacher thought he was much less smart that I know him to be. The WISC had several extraordinarily high sub-categories paired with some areas where he had sub 50th percentile skills (well, handwriting and some associated reading/writing). He actually had dysgraphia that was just manifesting as the writing demands got higher. He' now in 5th grade AAP and it's been a great experience. The teachers are great, the curriculum seems to involve a lot of independent and group projects, and honestly, I'd've loved to have a program that fantastic as a child. And, I'm glad we did the WISC as it's been valuable in deciding to get him tested, which got him a 504 (largely extra time on writing assignments) and extra teacher attention when he needs it. Even it if doesn't show any problems, its a very interesting way to think about learning and thinking.[/quote]
