[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well...I would appeal to them, and ask why the AAP process is done in secret with no one to be held accountable for an obvious error in judegement. I am refering to SKR's DC. I do NOT know SKR. but her DCs numbers look too good to not be in AAP. I would ask for an objective answer to why DC was not found eligible. I know that I will be visiting Dr. Z (cluster 8) and Patty Reed (Providence) if DC is not accepted, as DC has very simialr scores and meets the AAP qualifications on paper. Also, I believe that a parent knows best, an involved parent, and I don't understand why 5 random people who do not know my child are making such a HUGE educational decision. Good luck. Please post back what happens, and if I knew you, I would roll along to Gatehouse to be there for support. [/quote]

THANK YOU! It means a lot to know that I am right. It's been hard with the school as well, and I just know in my heart this was a wrong decision. That's exactly what I asked the teacher and the AART. Exceptf ro me and the classroom teacher who spend sall day with my DC, who really knows my child and [b]the teacher admitted her scores were higher than what went into the file[/b].

I'll post back here of course but this whole anon naming of the forum makes it difficult finding continuity with the posters :-)

Are you saying that the local screening committee (at the school) submitted a lower GBRS than what the classroom teacher had recommended?[/quote]

Yes. 
They had a discussion and they came up with the numbers. They include (principal, asst principal, (who donno my kid) AART (who meets with her once a week for 45 minutes) and the advanced Math teacher was not even on the committee (who my DC meets with everyday) [/quote]
