[quote=Anonymous]I look at what my bright kid gets in school through AAP and it is 10x what i ever got through GT in elementary. People complain, but I'm happy. OP, if you opt out of the program, what are you going to have your child do instead? It makes sense to skip it if there are better options, but if it's just going to be more regular classes your kid is head and shoulders above/bored in, why not do it? (even if there are no measurable outcomes?) My GT program in elementary was one afternoon a week, no grades but we did cool stuff--I clearly remember studying aerodynamics of flight and working with local pilots to study their planes. It was definitely a big deal part of 6th grade for me.[/quote]
