[quote=Anonymous]I wonder where you would place my son. He's dyslexic and struggles to read so he needs help with a lot of the language arts work. But his cognitive abilities, when we did the testing for the SpEd program, was in the "upper extreme" with a percentile rank of 99.8% (our school testing team, in Arlington, gives the KABC II test, not any of the tests that are usually mentioned in FFX county re: the AAP centers). So he'd likely qualify as both Advanced and Below Average under your metric. Would you have him go to the school for the remedial kids because of his intense need for assistance in reading assignments? Or keep him with the regular and advanced kids because he really is a creative and big picture non-linear thinker? Of course, we live in Arlington, so this is not really pertinent to me personally, but I use my son as an example, I'm sure there are plenty more like him in FFX.[/quote]
