[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like every elementary school teacher has kids in AAP. Since elementary school teachers are likely not gifted themselves and not a profession that typically attracts high IQ people, it just shows how easily prepped the process is. [/quote] Easily 1/3rd of my child's AAP classroom last year had at least one parent who worked for FCPS. I assumed that the file reviewers gave extra points to teachers' kids as professional courtesy.[/quote] Same teacher as above. I have reviewed files over the past several years and no where do the files indicate that the parents work for the school system. So the idea of professional courtesy is untrue. Screeners really do look at the scores holistically.[/quote] Oops - should have said "nowhere" and "screeners look at the FILES holistically."[/quote]
