Local School Screening Committee: 
The local school screening committee consists of at least three of the following: a teacher who works with the student, the advanced academic resource teacher, an administrator, English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) teacher, and other specialists as needed. The local school committee completes the Gifted Behaviors Rating Scale with Commentary and prepares screening files for all second grade pool candidates, as well as referrals. Parents or guardians are notified if the local school screening committee does not refer the student to the central selection committee. If parents or guardians appeal the decision of the local screening committee, the file is forwarded for central selection committee review.[/quote]

As a practical matter, does this ever happen?  I have never heard of a teacher, principal & AART deciding NOT to forward files to the central selection committee.  And what is the "appeal" process in this situation?  They tell you they aren't sending it to the central selection committee, and you say, "oh, yes you are" and then they send it?  That's what it sounds like to me. [/quote]
