I hope this is the case. I am anticipating some resistance because on the website it says "Proficiency Based Testing results will only be reported as “Pass” or “Not Pass”.
I have a meeting with the district gifted programming administrator soon. I am bringing:
1. printouts of the articles mentioned by indigo
2. District FERPA notification to parents
3. FERPA definitions
4. my son's IQ test results & other test results
5. the Iowa Acceleration Scale Manual
6. the district Gifted Policy
7. the state gifted Policy
8. A Nation Deceived
This is the first official meeting I have had with anyone at the district or the school, and I'm not sure what to expect. My primary goal is to get a copy of his test results and to open discussion about the acceleration policy and what options my son has. I want to have more specific goals here, but I'm unsure where to focus my efforts without having seen his test results.
Any advice, besides "check your emotions"? I have read through "From Emotions to Advocacy".
