[quote=Anonymous]5th grade finally in after all previous rejections. Last year saw the hope scores - basically zero. Nice that the teachers thought he was a psychopath! My kid doesn’t like school and is often bored but is not disruptive. He reads quietly.

2nd grader in too - she’s magnetic and talkative and easily won a great teacher reference.

Both had wisc scores done at request of school. My 5th grader the language arts teacher was baffled that he wasn’t in aap already. It all boils down to whether the teacher likes the student, which is just silly. Same happened with my now 9th grader with all As this year at TJ. He has anxiety and didn’t talk in class in 6th grade when we moved here. He took the cogat and got a 149 and was rejected.

I think the thing that helped was talking directly with the teachers about it at initial PT conference. I did not submit the questionnaire or work samples this time. I also suspect that our AAP teacher has had a lot more contact with him bc of the pullout class (he’s been in advanced math the past 2 years) and this has likely helped. [/quote]
