[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please, let's keep this thread a troll-free zone; I know how many people out there enjoy hating on parents of the gifted.

[b]Arlington Public Schools does little for gifted kids[/b], therefore the choice of which program embraced by a child's elementary school is an important one.  Luckily, here at APS we have a wide variety of choices---STEM schools, language immersion schools, Montessori, expeditionary learning, and so on.  My question to parents of gifted children is which program proved to be a good fit for your child, particularly in terms of meeting their social/emotional needs?  Were any programs such a terrible fit that you'd recommend avoiding them?  Did you find the program itself didn't matter so long as your child ended up with an understanding teacher or at least one peer in the classroom that he or she could relate to?  Was your child bullied or otherwise persuaded to hide his or her talents?  Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences![/quote]

what makes you say this?  is your LO in the gifted program already?[/quote]
