[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Under Virginia law, a gifted child is "special needs" (I know, crazy) and thus entitled to "services" aka AAP. Therefore if your child qualifies by IQ it is discriminatory under the Disability Discrimination Act to refuse services that are needed. So write that appeal! and GL.[/quote] Depends on who gave the test and whether it is supported by any other information in the student's file. There are a number of kids with 130+ IQs doing just fine in base schools around here. (I know of 3 right of the top of my head). Kind of difficult to argue a child's needs aren't being met based on that one data point. [/quote]
