No, you might be surprised how low your child's score is, and then what?

Then.... you might be more aware of how your child is presenting themselves in the classroom? And if any of it seems significantly out of alignment with what you observe at home, could use that as a launching point for a conversation with your child, and/or with the teacher at the next conference?

Or, I mean, you could just bury your head in the sand and pretend that the teacher's observations as reflected on the HOPE scores aren't valuable feedback about your student's performance alongside their standardized test scores and report cards and so on.

I was such an idiot too, but I got my treatment done and am on meds now. But I confess whenever I get the itch, I do come here and post "prepping". please send prayers, atleast I am trying to not be a low life.

I'm the PP who first brought up the prepping, but not in the way you're assuming. If PP's kid wasn't enrolled in some sort of heavy duty CogAT cram program, then the 139 is a very high score. A kid with a score well into the 99th percentile should be included in a program that admits 16% of all FCPS 2nd graders, even if the kid attends a high SES school. PP likely should appeal. If they're reluctant, they should at least schedule a meeting with the AART to find out what advanced options their school has for advanced kids.

My child did one Cogat workbook so she was familiar with the type of questions that would be asked. Is that prepping?

You seem like an insecure parent. Why are you asking for permission to buy one or ten cogat workbooks for your child? Do what you can afford. If you are rich, you should have enrolled them in private preschools that makes high cogat scores possible or if you are poor like me buy workbooks.

LOL, no, not insecure at all and obviously not asking for your permission, since I bought the workbook many months ago. Also, what is your weird ass obsession with private preschools and why do you keep posting about this everywhere? Maybe you're the insecure one since you didn't send your child to preschool?

because idiots like you keeping reading

Maybe you should have gone to preschool too.
