[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]we provide numerous possibilities for [b]understanding giftedness as developing potential in a much broader range of students[/b]." [/quote] As an AAP teacher, the bold part above is how the county "promotes" looking beyond test scores for admission, especially for URM. Does the student show the potential to be successful in AAP? [/quote] So, when they reject kids with high test scores, they're saying those kids don't have potential worth developing? One of my kids was rejected a few years ago with 97th percentile CogAT and a 15 GBRS. They thought she didn't have the potential to succeed in AAP or the potential to be gifted in any way? It makes about as much sense to say that they select kids based on using a magic 8 ball than whatever line of BS that FCPS is peddling. [/quote]
