We pulled my daughter out of FCPS this year to homeschool so this was a parent referral.
2nd Grade
NNAT 143
GBRS 2 CO 2 FO (Filled out by me- the teacher!)
Lots of good work samples
1 Standardized test score- California Achievement Test- 99th percentile
This is bullshit - a homeschool parent is going to do everything for their child.
Child also had amazing teacher recommendations. Glowing reviews.

In our case the AART referred our child. DC is in level IV, 2nd grade.

Yeah. That didn’t happen.

How long does it typically take for AART to respond back with the GBRS packet? My child was never going to get into AAP but we parent referred anyway (too far behind in reading and low NNAT). I'm curious what they submitted on her behalf though.

Co-signed. I would think any student coming from a homeschool environment should be evaluated pre-acceptance. Could be 100% accurate, but I am quite certain I would score my child differently than his teacher would... and she's probably right.

Has anyone figured out any logic? What is the success of appeals? What can we do to make the appeal successful?
We are in a similar boat. We had NNAT of 150 and NOT IN.
I got the GBRS today and 2 sections showed "Frequently observed" and 2 sections as "Occasionally observed".
Not sure what it means. Can someone please explain GBRS based on it?
You can find the form online, google it. Ask your AART for your kids packet.
They are based on teacher observations. 2 Occasionally Observed is unfortunately your kiss of death. There shouldnt be any--from what i can tell.

Navy...any other parents from NAvy who got odd results?
Clearly a Teacher refer so the GBRSs are probably amazing.
People need to request the GBRS so they know what the Teacher said and address those concerns in the appeal.

I'd be curious to know of those with high scores but no admission are in high SES areas.
My completely uninformed theory is that high SES parents are most likely to refer, and schools can't have the majority of kids in AAP. Therefore kids in those areas have more competition.
