[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]GBRS does not award points for docile, well-behaved kids. GBRS awards points for gifted behaviors that may be directly contrary to that type of behavior but indicate a different way of thinking the norm. Now, it is a bit strange they still use GBRS since FCPS does not claim the program is a gifted program anymore.[/quote] FCPS DOES still claim it's a gifted program. This is the program FCPS uses to satisfy the requirements imposed by Virginia to provide gifted services. The change in the name from GT to AAP was to let people know that it is an academic gifted program, not an arts gifted program. That's why they still use the NNAT, CogAT and GBRS. Now, do they include a broader range of kids than a lot of other gifted programs? Yes, but that's a different issue than whether FCPS claims it's a gifted program. [/quote]
