[quote=Anonymous]Are your fourth grade and fifth grades really good/strong for advanced kids? Will your child be challenged at your home school? Have you talked to parents of 4/5th grade kids who are similarly bright to be sure your child will be challenged? I say this as the parent of a child who was not accepted to the HGC and has been bored to tears and far underchallenged (except in compacted math) at home school. It's true there seems to be a significant amount of homework (and some stress) in the HGC, and hard to leave friends and home school, but I'd encourage you to pass on the HGC program only if you are sure your child will have a solid peer group at home school and will be challenged. (My view from the other side of the HGC program!). Good luck in making your decision![/quote]
