[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's a crock of sh*t. It was all political at my kids' elementary school. Parent push. Donations. Lobbying for it, etc. My kid had teachers advocating for his placement, scored super high on CogaT, etc. and basically told there was no space. Space was taken by kids put in there at 5-6 years old in Kindergarten. Meanwhile, my now Senior scored a first try 36 ACT, 5s on all of his APs, straight As at a tough private and has had 4 top 10 college acceptances. What is funny--is a letter came from APS at the end of 8th grade saying he qualified for GT in all subjects----just as he was out the door.[/quote] He didn't miss out on anything. Gifted Services in APS is a joke. They do nothing and it only exists because it is state law. [/quote]
