[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because these people didn’t refer as they were confident their kids would be in pool now they are mad and have to wait until next year [/quote] It’s overconfident not to parent-refer, considering only 30% get in based on test scores while 70% are referred. [/quote] Yes, the majority get in with a purchased gifted diagnosis and appeals.[/quote] Of course, FCPS acknowledges that it might not get it right always in evaluating a student, and hence provides qualified lower middle class student and their family a process to appeal. It is ironic but that only informed lower middle class families tend to purse the diagnosis and appeal path. If the process involved objective and consistent criteria, an appeal process would not be needed. [/quote]
