[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Given the fact that more and more kids are being found eligible for level IV services (see county statistics - I don't think this trend parallels any huge increase in the population in this area), I wonder if the standards for level IV classrooms are falling as teachers have to teach to the LCD. I do see many children getting in to the program who are not really "gifted" but rather just a little above average with parents who persevere or know the system. These children will survive and do fine because their parents will make sure they do. Just wonder where the standards are now compared to let's say 5-10 years ago?[/quote] Don't lump everyone together. My DC got all 140's subtests and 150s composite. Hoensty, DC doesn't work very hard but gets mostly O's. Looking forward to more of a challenge in AAP. He got in on merit alone so I prefer not to hear parents moan about the low standards. [/quote]
