[quote=Anonymous]It is real.  I remember the day my kid came home crying because his friend told him that he wished my kid was smarter so they could still go to school together.

What I find the most terrible is that not all schools have local level IV.  This means that not all kids in the county have to go through this splintering of school communities, whether they are GenEd or AAP.  They get to stay in their community school and still get services.

In the end, my child told me he didn't care what class he was in, he just wanted to go to school with the kids in his neighborhood like he always had.  He was very sad in 3rd grade.

I kind of went a little mama bear and went straight to the regional superintendent and, long story short, told them they created this mess, and they were going to help me fix it.  We ended up pupil placing, in GenEd, at the center school because it had space.  Next year, happy kid back with his buddies.  He even got the chance to do advanced math and science.  He never would have gotten that chance at his base school.

He ended up taking a mixture of Honors and Regular in MS and HS and is outperforming some of his friends who were in AAP.  Which, looking back, is really just advanced math.[/quote]
