[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. A lot of assumptions have been made. [b]We have told her nothing about AAP, which is why she is asking questions.[/b] We didn't tell her she was in pool. We didn't tell her when we got the acceptance letter. She is getting information from school and asking us questions. I said we are thinking about staying at LLIV but we're not 100% so we did bring up yesterday that we're going to two orientations to find the school that is the right fit for her for 3rd grade. The reason I mentioned being in class with the same kids from 3-6 is because she mentioned wanting to be in classes with her friend X and now, that won't happen unless and until X gets into AAP.

[b]If your child is asking "How did I get in," then you have told her about AAP. [/b]

She knows she is "in", therefore she knows she is in the club.

If she is asking "How do I get in the club? I want to get in the club because my friend is in the club," then she would not have known about the letter of eligibility (and see how I'm referring to it as "eligibility" rather than "acceptance" to a club)

I too have one kid in AAP and one in Gen Ed. We are totally careful about what we call these things.

I just said I told her yesterday when I explained that we were looking at 2 different schools. I never told her about AAP until yesterday, before I posted this question which clearly was a mistake. Silly me for thinking I could ask for help here. Once I mentioned it and the orientations, she came at with me with all these questions and said kids at school have been talking about it and asking her if she got in but she told them she didn't know. They also asked her which  school she was going to and she didn't know. [/quote]
