[quote=Anonymous]I am curious about the highly gifted programs. What are the kids in these programs typically like? Are they just accelerated, or are some also sensitive, creative, with areas of difficulty in academics or social skills? Just curious as my child is all of the above and I wonder whether this would be a good fit, or just too much pressure for such a child.... If some of the kids are similar to what I describe, do the programs offer support with social skills or academic needs (like organization or areas of academic difficult: e.g. if a child is gifted in math but not reading, could they be in the program and receive support for the weaker side?) Do the highly gifted kids mix with the other kids in the school (or is this the case in some schools with the programs and not others)? [/quote]
