[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our AART very much emphasized that they are trying to find a peer group for your child. For appeal they mentioned to focus on how this would not be met at the general ed level. I think it is important to take it school by school.[/quote] We tried this route in our appeal letter for 2nd great and it didn't work for us. She was in-pool, great scores, lackluster HOPE, and pathetic work samples from the teacher. She was rejected on appeal that year even with high WISC scores and an appeal that mentioned peer group needs. I'm not convinced there was anything we could do to overcome the garbage packet the teacher/AART submitted for her that year. She got in the next year, with a vastly different HOPE and so many great work samples. Our AART is useless. Despite DD being in part time AAP last year and full time this year, she's never even met the AART. The 3rd grade AAP teacher is the one who made the packet that got our daughter in. The AART did nothing but type in her WISC scores wrong (she got in anyway, so I didn't make a fuss about it, but wtf???)[/quote]
