[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Really?  Somehow I just don't see low-income parents knowing anything about referrals, appeals, or private testing.   :roll: [/quote]
I imagine there is a lot you don't see.[/quote]

+1. Low income means low income, not necessarily inability to read. [/quote]

Low income often means working multiple jobs just to stay afloat.  Of course it doesn't mean unable to read.  But it does mean that anything outside the ordinary when it comes to school, is going to be low priority for families whose entire focus is on just surviving, not taking their child for a $400 WISC.  You know, on their day off.   You people need to get out of your bubbles of privilege and get real.  :roll:  :roll:  :roll: [/quote]

Most of these posters can't seem to see past their own shiny little world. They also think every school is full of higher SES kids like theirs, where half the school tests into the AAP center somehow, and you can actually have classrooms of level IV AAP right there. Come on over to our base school, where maybe one kid per class qualifies for the AAP center, and there certainly is no local level IV. [/quote]
