[quote=Anonymous]17:21 PP here, and I wonder whether there is some method to the madness of which kids who deserve AAP are kept out. My kid who didn't get in scored pass advanced on every SOL, with perfect scores on most, was consistently above grade level in all subjects, got a 99th percentile IAAT, straight As in middle and high school, and 5s on a bunch of AP exams. This kid is one who is very cooperative in the classroom, makes effective use of time, and even in gen ed was generally helpful or kept themselves quietly occupied with reading. I mean, the AART said my kid should have been admitted, and the GBRS was perfect, so it's not like the school sabotaged my kid, but I wonder whether the central committee rejects certain kids that they think would be an asset to the gen ed teacher. My other kid who got admitted to AAP would have been disruptive and difficult in gen ed, and would not have made the teacher's life any easier. [/quote]
