[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. This is not a center school. I was under the impression that AART are there to help parents/act as a resource/be a guide in the process. Getting scripted answers feels fake and doesn't accomplish those goals. And I know she's been more helpful to some others. [/quote] Well, in that case, just do the best you can with the samples. My son is in a center school and the AART wasn’t helpful at all. But you can always try for principal placement if the child doesn’t get in. [/quote] OP. Child is already principal placed. Our school does clusters but kid has been in an AAP cluster but I've just really been hoping to get DC admitted into AAP before MS and I've been desperate for more guidance given past year rejections.[/quote] There is a big difference between you begging the principal to let your child in AAP every year and him saying yes (because he always says yes to everyone, FYI) and your child actually deserving to get in. We all know that you called the week before 3rd grade to beg him to let your kid in because you didn't like the cohort your child was placed with and the fact that the teacher was new to the school, and then because your child was successful in class in 3rd, you asked that they put your kid in one of the advanced classes this year. That STILL doesn't mean your child deserves to be LLIV. Just keep begging and the principal will let your child stay advanced for 5th and 6th, and then you can place your kid in Honors in middle school, which is the same thing as AAP. As for the AART, she's just doing her job, leave her alone. [/quote] Interesting how OP replied to everything and then stopped once I posted this. She knows it's true.[/quote] OP probably didn't think your post deserved acknowledgment. It's not unreasonable for someone to want guidance with putting together a package=-certainly if AART is helping others [/quote]
