What percentage of kids get into gifted and talented programs?

OP this means nothing except to you.

Schools do not care.

And in MS & HS your kids signs up for whatever they choose. Don't let this board convince you of anything else.

It needs to be explained that Gifted identification is not a badge of honor nor ego boost for parents but should be used to identify students that need different supports. There is a reason that it is place under Special Education. If people understood that Giftedness comes with its own burdens they would temper their behavior.

What burdens? Some kids are simply gifted and not twice exceptional. Everyone learns differently
