[quote=Anonymous]My 1st grader has been getting pulled to do more advanced math with the math specialist. The school doesn't start G&T until 3th grade, but begins by having the coordinator pull kids out for more challenging work. Obviously, I don't know how DS will test in a couple years, but he's always been great with numbers and has a natural aptitude. Looking way ahead, are there any downsides to having him placed in the G&T program? Is it better to make sure he is challenged by supplementing or accelerating at home or outside programs? I ask because I haven't paid any attention to this stuff and don't have older kids, but I do vaguely remember people generally bashing G&T, including on DCUM.[/quote]
