You can get it in April. It's not being withheld from you.

If your child is not in the pool, I'd definitely schedule the WISC.


The packet is for parents who referred, so butt out. You obviously don’t know a thing about it.


The packet is for everyone. The packet includes GBRS and work samples for all kids who are being considered for AAP, this includes kid who are in the pool and kids who are parent referred. The difference is that the teachers have to provide GBRSs and work samples for kids in the pool automatically.

So kids who are in pool have packets, some of them will not be accepted because of low GBRSs or poor work samples or both.


But then how do you explain the ignorance of the previous poster? She says, “what packet”? The reason she doesn’t know is Bc her kid was automatically in the pool and she obviously didn’t put together one. Smh.

Yes there are. They are using words instead of numbers. The sliding scale is based on how consistently a child displays the behavior.

So schedule it for the period between when you receive the packet and when appeals are due. Cancel if need to.

I want to see the GBRS scores to see if it’s even worth appealing.

It’s absolutely ludicrous. I need to know the GBRS scores now to determine if I need to schedule a WISC. It’s not fair other schools lrovide the info sooner,
