[quote=Anonymous]Website link here: [url]http://www.fcps.edu/is/aap/ys.shtml[/url] "Young Scholars is a K-8 initiative that is designed to increase the proportion of historically underrepresented students in gifted programs. School administrators, teachers, and Advanced Academic resource teachers work together to find and nurture gifted potential in young learners. Through flexible grouping, summer school, and after school programs, students are provided an educational setting that raises their personal expectations and prepares them for more challenging and rigorous coursework and academic programs." I think if your child is Asian-American they are not considered. As the prior poster said this is primarily for minorities such as Hispanics and African Americans. I believe Young Scholars occurs at all schools. Not sure though. I thought the staff are supposed to identify potential young scholars.[/quote]
