[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I never get why Fairfax county is so transparent with their testing yet mcps is so hush hush with theirs.  When my kid took the Inview in years past, they didn't even bother telling us until the day of the testing.  So much for making sure your child gets enough sleep and had a hardy breakfast.[/quote]

[b]Reading the AAP threads makes it seem awful to me..[/b]all the different testing and score comparisons.[/quote]

AAP is not at all like the AAP forum on dcum.

Dcum's version of AAP is like some weird alternative universe.

+1. The DCUM AAP forum get the 5% of the parents who are militant AAP or die, and the 5% whose kids missed the cut and who cannot cope with that. But it misses the other 90% of parents, who are somewhat sane, and functioning fine in the current system.  The nice thing about AAP is that you know the criteria to get in, that everyone is screened, that your kid is there for 5 years, that a kid can enter after third grade if they are a late bloomer, and that everyone who qualifies who gets access.  Nothing is perfect, but IRL, it works well for most kids. [/quote]
