[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP:  Some people think that people that help out a lot in PTA get better GBRS scores.  That may be true, but correlation does not mean causation.  I suspect that kids with parents involved in there education do better.  The involvement at school probably means involvement at home.

I was surprised by DC's friend's GBRS (thought it was a little high) and wondered if it was partly due to the child's parent's sincere involvement in the classrooms of his/her kids.  Since then and with what I've read on this forum, I have come to the conclusion that the GBRS is much more subjective than we would think.  Outside of that, however, it is the central screening committee that decides who is eligible for level IV services - doubt that PTA involvement plays any role there.

As far as local level IV - been quite disappointed by how little accurate info the base school shares.  I feel that is part of the reason so few level IV's stay and the class is filled with non level IV kids.  It's a vicious circle.[/quote]
