[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Such an artificial dichotomy that AAP = smart, GenEd = not. There are many kids who either barely missed admission or barely made it in. The parents feed the hysteria to make sure their kids are known as "smart." Let's not perpetuate that with kids. [/quote] Brilliantly said.[/quote] Yes. This. Of course kids have always been at different levels, and this isn't about trying to make sure everyone is equal and warm fuzzies and group hugs. But CENTERS (not AAP) makes this such a pronounced in or out, which is particularly ridiculous when there is such overlap between kids just admitted and those who just missed. I mean, really? If AAP could fully tell who was "gifted" there wouldn't be any need for an appeal process.[/quote] HELLO? FCPS? Are you reading this? {Waves arms} See what a mess having Centers creates? Move AAP back to the schools![/quote]
