[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I could agree with OP I suppose, i just do not understand why one would even compare public elementary school with private universities. [/quote] Correct. FCPS is NOT Harvard. We are all taxpayers. It’s like paying tuition and getting no classes your child needs.[/quote] You missed the point. No one is equating LIV AAP to Harvard. The point is that you could and most likely a gifted child may make it into Harvard, irrespective of LIV AAP. It doesn't mean that the gifted child will not success if they don't get into LIV AAP. You don't have the data to support it. In fact, most truly gifted children are able to tap into outside resources to help them flourish. If your kid scored a 150 on the WISC, think about looking at the Phillips Exeter(s) of the world. There are plenty of local programs that can support your child and with a score like that, many of such places offer parents tuition reimbursement because a very small percentage of kids test in that range. Very small. [/quote]
