[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When you have 25 - 50% in AAP, the term "gifted" has lost all meaning.[/quote] It is not a gifted program. FCPS did away with its gifted program (in early 2000s??). Now it is Advanced Academics. There is a difference - AAP is intended to be more inclusive. It is not intended to be only for the gifted. So gifted still has its meaning - it just doesn't apply to FCPS AAP.[/quote] Thank you for this clarification. Lots of AAP parents think their student is gifted when they are just "high performers."[/quote] Scores don't lie[/quote] NP. Reading through the recent admission thread, some kids scored well above the required numbers and didn't get in, whereas others scored below the threshold and were offered admission on the first go. I'm new to all this, but that seems very fishy to me. [/quote]
