[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If a teacher completed a gbrs due to a parent referral for level 4 services, she has to defend each score with ways the student is demonstrating gifted behaviors in each area. If we give a 3 in an area, we have to write 3 ways in which we see gifted behaviors in that area. This can be a very difficult process even with a child the teacher thinks may be gifted. It's even harder with a child who, while perhaps high  achieving, may not demonstrate a lot of gifted behaviors . We are given plenty of examples, but sometimes few of these honestly fit.[/quote]

I am wondering if the program really is for "gifted" students.  It's not called "gifted and talented" - just "advanced."  My son received a 9 GBRS and was told by his second grade teacher that he is not gifted and cannot excel in the AAP program.  However, he was admitted and has received all 4s on his academic subjects over the past two years.  I can't stand the subjective nature of the GBRS. [/quote]

Can you please let know us what your son's scores were? Also if you have submitted any other supplemental material for him.[/quote]
