[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is also teacher input that goes into lottery decision. [/quote]

Not true.[/quote]

It is true. I used to be an MCPS teacher and scored students for the CES program many times[/quote]

Teachers haven’t been involved in four years.   Your experience is dated and no longer accurate. [/quote]

I disagree. In the past 3 years, I’ve had 2 kids put in the lottery and was told teacher input was part of the decision in addition to MAP scores. [/quote]

Right. They will tell you no teacher input so parents are not pissed at the teacher when their kid doesn't get in to CES. But teacher input counts, after all, they see your kid for several hours each day, know their classroom academic performances, and peer interactions.[/quote]

FFS, no teacher input is requested or provided. This is a central process that takes place in central office. Schools are given the list of kids who were accepted by central office and they are not able to adjust it or influence it. The gifted and talented identification includes teacher input but that is NOT the same thing and is completely unconnected to CES selection. In fact the gifted and talented identification means nothing at all.[/quote]
