[quote=Anonymous]Parent of 2 APS kids here, both identified as gifted. In K, don't do this. Honestly. Nothing would happen for 1st grade. They will test all kids in 1st and/or the classroom teacher will refer your kid. I would say the additional supports in ES are zero, at least as far as I can tell. They have "resource teachers for the gifted" who seem to have sometimes worked with small groups, and at other times they just maybe provided the classroom teachers with stuff? And any of that had stopped pre-COVID so now, I don't know. In MS, they can do more advanced classes (like your kid could take pre-Algebra as a 6th grader) but this does not seem to require any special designation. I would email your principal if you want something more concrete.[/quote]
