[quote=Anonymous]The basic argument is that GBRS scores tend to reflect 'me me me' rather than bright kids. A kid raising his/her hand always (even when he/she has nothing of substance to contribute) will likely get a higher GBRS score than a smarter one who simply doesn't. The key question is how exactly the AART interacts with the kids. My impression in our school is that she showed up once a month in class, and if your kid didn't raise a hand then your kid was not considered (by said teacher) AAP material.... Unfortunately, it seems that we have had occasions of AART teachers who appear to see this as an opportunity to emphasize their role in the process (i.e. by going blatantly against scores) rather than understanding that they are there for the kids.
