[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe if all kids were judged on [u]only[/u] their test scores, I wouldn't bother prepping my DS.  But since things like URM, ELL, Young Scholar matter (and he won't get those bonus points) and I don't know how his teacher will evaluate him on GBRS, he needs to do well enough on NNAT and CogAT to be among the top kids at his ES. Not just in pool, but hopefully at top of the pool because he's [u]not[/u] an URM.  Nobody is under the illusion that all the kids in AAP are "gifted." but it is the more accelerated track in FCPS. I won't pay for a course, but I will buy workbooks to help him put his best foot forward. That's not cheating![/quote]

This is very politely worded but tbh sounds like you've spent too much time reading DCUM.

If your kid is gifted, they'll most likely get in.  If they aren't, they might get in but also will be fine in gen ed classes.  ES isn't FCPS's strong suit but it's fine and students are prepared for MS and HS, which are FCPS's strong suit. [/quote]
