[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My child was in the GTLD program at Shannon.

The program is for 2E kids, who are all brilliant. They'd probably be in your child's classes. The advantage there is an extra teacher in the class and a smaller class size. A lot of individualized attention.

I was very impressed with the school. It isn't wealthy. It doesn't have a lot of the resources wealthier schools do, but the teachers were all wonderful and engaged our child who is now attending a magnet. And they  are not the only one from Shannon in it. A lot of kids also end up at Northwood's mc2 program. Northwood has the high school GTLD program.

My child was bullied for being smart in elementary school. That's how they ended up at Shannon and diagnosed 2E. They were not bullied at Shannon and I will forever be grateful to the school. I encourage you to tour and keep an open mind.

That's very encouraging! What magnet is your child in now? How are they doing without the GTLD program (unless they're at Northwood)?

My child is designated as 2e, but does not need to be in special classes for it. I heard there's a separate science class for the GTLD students at OSMS that has more hands-on experiments than the regular science classes, and that sounds more interesting than the regular class. [/quote]
