[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]to those complaining about the AAP - not having it creates other issues. In MoCo (where I am; considering move to FFX which i why i am lurking here) there is nothing at all in any formal way that requires schools to seriously help target advanced ES learners beyond reading groups except for a VERY small program for the top 2 - 3% of kids. That program I hear is awesome but also only exists for 4 and 5th grades. So until 3rd grade you have nothing and for the 97% of kids in regular schools you have little formal process in place to help ensure that those needing more enrichment to target where they are at get it.

Yes, and there's so much research that shows that labeling kids as early as FFX county does is wrong. FFX county has about 20% of kids in AAP, that's crazy![/quote]

Some Fairfax County parents need the reinforcement of their kid being identified as AAP to show they are great parents with superior children.  Thankfully these parents are in the minority, unfortunately it is a very vocal minority.    [/quote]
