[quote=Anonymous]Parent of a "wrong kid" here - DD was like a mouse in school, had trouble spelling and writing was slow. Teacher clearly wasn't impressed with her when we met for the November conference. At home however, DD writes amazing stories and poems, invents things and runs circles around us in strategy games. She loves to do independent research, and on her topics of interest she speaks like a little adult :) Her test scores were exceptional, and she's been accepted to the Center. Since November we stepped up spelling practice and public speaking opportunities, and DD recently won a writing award. Teacher agrees DD has matured and is ready for AAP. A volunteer in the classroom like OP might not "get" any of this. Some kids don't follow a straight path. The committee, however, has seen lots of profiles and I would think has a good idea about which children need the services of the Center.[/quote]
