[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AAP is not a gifted program. It is an accelerated program, as its name suggests. It used to be called a GT program, but the name was changed to reflect the new nature of the program. I was told that in FFX county, about 50% students receive some form of accelerated service (including different levels of AAP). 25% are in Level IV AAP. In contrast, Montgomery County’s GT Program only admits 3% of the total student population. Loudoun county roughly 10-11%.[/quote] 19% is in the program, and 50% is an exaggeration, but the point is valid. This is literally what is causing the most issues. Most parents will acknowledge that their child is not gifted. Most parents will NOT acknowledge their child is not close to the top 20%, and once you pull the higher performers out, you're stuck in a classroom teaching the lowest common denominator.[/quote]
