[quote=Anonymous]As a parent, it's up to you to put the effort in or not. How well do you know your kid? Do you think your child should be in AAP? Why isn't Gen Ed a good fit? How well can you articulate that your child needs AAP services? We were in the same spot a few years ago. We put our best effort into the appeal without relying on the teacher nor the AART, both of whom were not very supportive. We gathered other data- had other tests done such as Woodcock Johnson, SCAT, Stanford Binet. We had our kid do work samples based on strengths shown in the tests. We wanted to make sure that our data was comprehensive and complete. Was it overkill? I'm sure DCUM would say so but it was valuable for us to learn about our kid through this process. We wrote a parent letter about our observations. Kid is currently in 6th grade at a center school. AAP has been a fantastic fit. He has excelled and has just loved school. [/quote]
