[quote=Anonymous]I live in chicago and just got an email from a kids play space called NY Kids Club (not sure if they've made it to dc yet) and just got an email for "Gifted and Talented Test Prep Classes" for children as young as 4! What's wrong with people?! I know the argument that they're tracked so young, this gets them into great public options blah blah blah...but they're 4! They have a lifetime to stress and prep and prepare, let them just be what they are for a bit! It just makes me so sad. Even if NYKC isn't in DC yet, I'm sure things like this exist in dc too, I went to TJ back in the day and have seen the very active alumni debate on getting rid of the test and how early test prep starts for it now. Fortunately, that was before my time[/quote]
