[quote=Anonymous]DC got into HGC and we decided not to send him. He is one of several kids in his class who either got in or were wait-listed or whose parents simply decided not to try to send him. The high level differentiation still exists and he has a peer group at his current school. He is also getting 2 years ahead math, which is the acceleration he most needs. That's a long way of saying that nothing changes at the home school so long as your child already has peers there. And there are some schools who get many more kids into HGC than 1 or 2 (though that 1 or 2 is probably the norm.) We're at a school where a far higher number got in this past year -- more than a dozen.[/quote]
