[quote=Anonymous]Why lower the standards? They don't pick 4 kids from each school to attend the HGC no matter what. They pick kids "whose needs aren't being met in the home school". Hhmmm... Kinda see what you mean - that actually could be more kids now. Wait, wait... not changing my mind on this. The standards won't be lower. They're looking for kids who have interests that aren't addressed in the home school, who want and need to learn deeper and more intensely. The home school doesn't do that. Hhmmm... kinda see what you mean. The home school could meet that need under 2.0... Seriously, I think that if they pick the kids who are truely gifted and need the extra challenge (think Doogie howser, not just the kid who strives to please and gets all A's) they will still be picking the right kids for the program. And I agree, there's something wrong with 2.0. [/quote]
