[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most school districts conflate gifted with high achieving.  That said there is a large amount of high achieving students in MoCo, a smaller group of high achieving and amazingly driven(or pushed) students, and some gifted.

ES has Compacted Math available in 4th and 5th grade(complete 4th-6th grade math), the is also an Enriched Literacy Curriculum(how this is modeled is changing this school year by school. More to come).

There are MS and HS magnet and Special Programs. As others said these are under review and will be changing beginning Fall 2026.  If you move here soon this would be worth paying attention on and being involved in.

Other than this, determine where you want to live in the county and then you can get more info.  DO NOT rely on DCUM as your main source of info.[/quote]
I think they’re trying to fix that. At least two board members correctly pointed out that giftedness should not be dependent on how much English you know. Yet CogAT and IQ tests are reliant on how much English you know, which is silly.[/quote]
