[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with you about many options for challenge and enrichment, and taking a longer and broader view. But I simply don't believe that WISC testers for AAP appeal should be limited to school psychologists, who were likely already part of the GBRS team and may have preconceived notions about the child. [/quote] That would depend on the school. The team listed on my DC1's GBRS consisted of the classroom teacher, the AART and the assistant principal, not the school psychologist. In the AAP office's Parent Information Packet, the school psychologist isn't even listed as someone who might be on the local screening committee except perhaps in the catchall "other specialists as needed". A school psychologist might have preconceived notions about a particular child (and probably would for my DC2), but it most likely wouldn't be from the GBRS.[/quote]
