[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The rule has not changed in the literal sense. In Virginia, "gifted education" is still viewed as special ed in the sense that the children in the program have special needs, which could not be met under a general ed curriculum. But as FCPS has broadened the AAP program to include not only "gifted," but also high achieving kids and smart ones with particularly persistent parents, the special ed justification has become a sham. Now in many ways, it's become an arbitrary separation of kids into have and have-notes. I think the fact, that many parents don't realize it has changed so much (and I say this has a parent who had a kid in GT when it was GT) is what has kept FCPS from getting in trouble. [/quote] From what the parents say here, it does seem to be a different group than when it was GT. It wasn't meant to change though. [/quote]
