[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they get rid of parent referrals what happens if you have a WISC? Can you submit that or not? For example, my current second who was found eligible was not “in pool” on NNAT or CogAT but would have been in “pool” if WISC was considered. I find this would mainly adversely impact students with disabilities if it’s not allowed. [/quote] I would say WISC should be allowed, on the condition that FCPS needs to partner up with GMU and start brining the testers to the schools. A URM kid who just missed the cutoff whose parents cannot miss work to go to downtown Fairfax in the middle of the day is not going to be WISC tested, even if the fee is waived, because of logistics and a language barrier (GMU will not provide translators to parents). This should be widely offered at all FCPS elementary schools on a sliding scale basis to any student whose parents consent.[/quote]
