[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not in region 2. Is anyone in region 2 willing to report this school's actions to the school board, region 2, and Phyllis Pajardo?[/quote]

Before you start reporting, you better check all your facts.  There are other schools in the same boat!  [/quote]

I'm happy to report them all. Which other ones do you know of? The other possibilities I can see are Columbia, Halley, Poplar Tree, and Chesterbrook. Poplar Tree is less of an issue this coming year since they are becoming a new center. Chesterbrook historically has had very large AAP classes, so I'm guessing the one low class was just an anomaly this year. I don't know about Columbia and Halley yet. Shrevewood's credibility is at stake now because the principal deliberately gave more teachers than necessary to 3rd and 4th grade AAP students to appease the AAP parents specifically and she did this repeatedly for the two years this LLIV program has been in existence.[/quote]

I don't think "credibility" is the right word.  It sounds like the principal was upfront about her intentions and did what she said she would do.  You might question her judgment, but not her credibility.

Did FCPS really need to make LLIV available in that many schools in that area?  It seems the result has been to promote a bidding war among principals to attract a finite number of AAP-eligible kids who'll boost their test scores.  [/quote]

It's pretty clear that this is/was FCPS' way of "apologizing" for the whole Haycock issue, where many Haycock parents were more than happy to kick out the Shrevewood kids from the AAP center. So as to not further ruffle feathers, Shrevewood was able to create LLIV so as to keep their kids rather than have to feel rejected. [/quote]

Haycock is undergoing a renovation because it is still so crowded. FCPS didn't need to do anything to those students. Those students were allowed to stay at Haycock for years longer than they should have. This principal is shady and I would distrust anything from her including the actual AAP referrals from her school.[/quote]
