[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One school at a time is what I have read here. Also their attempt to make sure they are comparing students of the same building giving the top students of each school a chance to be in the program. Committee members look at students that are not from their school as to remove bias. [/quote] So my child is at a disadvantage being at an elementary school in McLean. I would assume half or more of the school parent referred and all these kids tested well.[/quote] The benefit is that your child will have academic peers in both AAP and Gen Ed. Plus, math is sorted differently, so if your child qualifies for advanced math, they will get. Also, most of the McLean ES schools do the AAP curriculum for social studies and science in the Gen Ed classrooms too. Math is really the most important bit and your kid can be in the advanced math class even if they are not full time AAP. [/quote]
