[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely. We volunteered all the time in elementary school, when it came time for the AAP application, we kind of just left it to the teachers to handle it.[/quote]

It sounds like you’re being snarky and presenting this like PP benefited from some kind of insider transaction: volunteer a bit, hand the AAP process over to teachers, and boom -- your kid gets a boost.

Guess what?  You haven’t cracked the code. Your DC either didn’t qualify, or you dropped the ball as there are multiple publicly communicated avenues to access AAP resources if student is eligible.  You seem super competitive so maybe you're just mad.

AAP placement isn’t a reward for being visible, and it’s not influenced by who shows up to staple packets. There’s no secret lane, no back‑channel, no “chosen” parent cohort quietly steering outcomes.

What you’re alluding to isn’t how the system works. It’s how you’ve chosen to interpret your own experience -- and it’s a pretty pathetic lens to apply to an entire public school process. [/quote]
