[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These things don't regularly happen in FCCPS, sadly. It's because there are only a couple of gifted specialists spread among 3 schools. In our experience, it's enrichment during pullouts. Differentiation in the classroom doesn't occur except in the usual math/reading groups (high, average, low). Once the kids are in middle school, the kids can take accelerated courses, but that's not part of the gifted program. Oh, and in 8th grade, there are "gifted" kids in standard math, algebra and geometry. The gifted label fades away by that point and in high school they're just put into honors courses with all the "non gifted" smart kids.[/quote] My child is in ACE and she has received services exactly as described in the link. She's in third grade and has been in ACE since kindergarten.[/quote]
