Yes, she is pretty much always reading, but I wouldn't say she was reading on this level -- really just more of the same. But, she's also started quite a bit of creative writing -- like her own stories -- so maybe that can accelerate this score? I have no idea. So I am meeting with the principal on Tue. to discuss the score.
What I keep going back to is how are they going to try to discount this, considering they didn't even address it themselves initially, ya know? I mean, I always kind of waited for the day that people didn't have to "take my word for it" and yet I am still the one asking to meet about off-the-charts scores for their own testing! Does it ever become more self-evident?
In the meantime I asked for gifted (IQ) testing at the beginning of the year and was denied due to not enough data collected -- so she is currently in the midst of a "phase 2 intervention" where she is pulled out for 45 minutes per day with the gifted teacher while they decide if she is suitable for testing. So, they of course do not think MAP scores say anything about giftedness. So for now all I can hope to do is deal with this subject and at least get it straightened out.
Does anyone know if I ask for subject acceleration what grade would be appropriate?? I haven't the foggiest...
