[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]30% of FCPS students are in AAP. It’s not a selective group by any means. Acceptance is not based on scores, but mainly hinders on excellent teacher recommendations. If you have a gifted child who is disruptive in class, this child will not get a good letter and will not get into AAP. It’s a teachers pet sort of thing. [/quote] This so isn't true. I've had two kids get into AAP. The first was an excellent student, did everything asked and more, had an excelled GBRS and referral but missed the cutoff by 2 points and wasn't accepted until a composite of 98th percentile was reached. My other child had ADHD, didn't listen, acted up, and didn't work during class. No way there was a good teacher recommendation or GBRS yet got in because of perfect SOL score and very high Naglieri (97th percentile) in K. It's all about the scores. [/quote]
