[quote=Anonymous]Yes, 2E kids who were parent referred and have gifted level WISCs belong in AAP. They are the exception and not the rule. Most parent referrals are upper middle class kids who are above average with parents who are highly invested in the kids' education. These kids are not the intended recipients of AAP and are only getting selected because their privileged upbringing makes them seem more advanced than they are, and their parents have the resources to game the system. This level of parent input into AAP placement is a huge equity problem, since equally talented kids from poorer families don't have the same resources to look good to the selection panel. [/quote]
