[quote=Anonymous][quote]Gifted Teacher: what do you say to the straight A student every year, is in the same building as the Center, but is not in the AAP program. The child asks, "what more do I have to do?".[/quote]
[quote]Is a smart, high achiever, all around good (kind to others, no bad behavior, participates, is attentive), never has to "study", totally frustrated with the process of teachers "repeating" the same information "over and over"(so others in class can "get it"), "straight A" student, not worthy of having "advanced academics"? [/quote]
[quote]All children do get a fair shake. [b]I suggest you familiarize yourself with the appeals process.[/b]

[b]Oh I am very familiar[/b] - really wish I wasn't then it would piss me off so much. [/quote]

The above posts all appear to refer to the same child and give the impression that the poster is seeking advice about a real situation. Other posters with backgrounds in education have offered suggestions for ways to deal with the situation portrayed, as it appeared that there was a parent asking how to help a child who was doing well in school and wanted to be in AAP but was not. The reference to being "very familiar" with the appeals process gave the reader the impression that there had already been an application and then an appeal.
