[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am an AAP parent and I don't want those kids coming in.  They're not part of the class and they distract.  [/quote]
They absolutely are part of the class in those subjects.  Why do you want to deny bright level III kids the ability to access an appropriate education?  Those level III kids might actually be brighter and more deserving than your child, but for whatever reason didn't get picked by the selection committee.[/quote]
so many of the kids who are in level III in my school had very high scores but were not selected for level IV.  I think it's hilarious that so many level IV parents really think their kids are so above the rest.  If your kid is that gifted-you shouldn't be relying in AAP to meet their needs. [/quote]

The cut-offs for Level IV are laughably arbitrary, so the idea that III kids are a distraction and IV kids are not is absurd.  The smartest kid in my DD's AAP class is the one who's disruptive, too, BTW, and the parents are the, "Oh, DC is just behaving like that because they're BORED.  If they were CHALLENGED, they'd sit in their seat quietly and do their work." sort.  This kid NEVER sits quietly anywhere - they're the class clown - funny, sweet, but very attention seeking and must have other kids' eyes on them at all times.

And these push-in kids were already pushing in last year during in-person, during virtual, and now in hybrid, so the kids are used to them as part of their class, unless their asshole parent tells them otherwise.[/quote]
