[quote=Anonymous]13:58, you are exactly the kind of person I was thinking about when I posted this on the previous page:

[quote]Parents who would complain about that seem to me not to really understand what this process is about. Your kid will get in on his own merit or he will not; why waste your time going after other parents, trying to keep their kids out?? Don't we want ALL the qualified kids to get into the Center? Presumably that creates the best & most challenging peer group within the Center. Or do we just want our kids to seem "better" than someone else's kids, even if it means fighting to exclude their files from the process? I don't get it. I think the deadline should be enforced because it's very clear on the website and letters home from school, but these are extenuating circumstances, and FCPS has stated on the website that the deadline is extended. We're going to punish children by excluding them from the AAP Center because their parents reasonably believed they didn't have to go out in a blizzard to turn forms in at a closed school building? My forms are in, but I wouldn't object to anyone bringing their file to school on the day it reopens. [/quote]

Like another PP, my child is already in the Center, just so you know where I'm coming from.  [/quote]
