Above average is an IQ from about 110 to 125.  Do you really think those kids belong in AAP?   :shock:   Parents certainly are trying to push kids in that intelligence range into AAP.  Something is deeply broken with gen ed if it can't accommodate the needs of kids with IQs in that range.  [/quote]

But who cares what other parents do?  There is an impartial selection committee so it's not up to the parents.  (I am not talking about principal placed LLIV students here).[/quote]
The impartial selection committee expanded AAP from 6% in 2000 to over 20% today, and this whole thread started because they're talking about lowering the standards even more to get more URMs into the program.  Like everything else in FCPS, AAP also teaches to the lowest common denominator, which is starting to become pretty low.  Weren't you paying attention when the AAP teachers on this forum were saying that they're getting a lot of kids in their classrooms who can't handle AAP.[/quote]
White kids arent URM’s[/quote]
