[quote=Anonymous]22:08  here.  I have to disagreed again - every child in the school does not get a GBRS.  The full name of that form is the Gifted Behavior Rating Scale.  Why would every child be assessed using this form when it is specifically designed to identify gifted children?  There were kids in our 2nd grade screening pool last year who received 4's and 6's on this form.  What number do you think the 'average' student would receive?  Doesn't make sense.  That's just not the right form for every student.  My DC received level II services in the lower grades b/c the teacher decided DC needed them.  And it may be different by school, but at our school only kids who were in the pool but weren't accepted at the center were eligible for level III services.  The decisions for level II and level III are all made by the individual school, not the same screening committee like for level iV.  So i think each school and AARt has alot of control as to who gets those services and how they pick them.  At least that's my experience.[/quote]
