[quote=Anonymous]If Montgomery County allowed a segregated classroom of students who tested as gifted in the home school, it would take them out of the classrooms with kids who are struggling academically and could benefit from learning alongside their more advanced peers. The county has a stated goal of bringing every student up to the level of proficiency. That is clearly a higher priority. As a parent of children in a Montgomery County elementary school who are in the 30% but not the top 3%, it's my conclusion that schools that are meeting the needs of advanced/gifted children are the exception, not the rule. Maybe we should move to Fairfax! [/quote]
