[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate how these threads turned into "let's be a dick toward people who got gifted education."

DCPS probably isn't serving these kids that well. I have a child who's probably a little misplaced in middle school, but hoping for a little differentiation. I am not one to demand changes, I am trying not to be that Karenish demanding DCUM mom, but I do hope my child gets met where they are and middle school isn't nonstop remediation. I can understand COVID response means getting people back on board, but I hope this doesn't last forever.[/quote]

no one here is against gifted education. we're being dicks towards losers who are compelled to lie about their iq scores on the internet.[/quote]

no, we aren't lying. my IQ test was done in school, when I was 13, it took a couple days to complete and i vividly remember sitting down with my guidance counselor to go over the results. It comes up on the forum because we are proud, and never ever mention it in real life because it makes people extremely uncomfortable and hostile (except fellow CTYers who are so excited to find kindred spirits). I think i've told two people my IQ in real life, one is my husband. [/quote]

to clarify -- it comes up on the forum bc we can be anonymous and are proud to occasionally mention it, and it's not something we can really talk about IRL without making people uncomfortable. clearly it makes people uncomfortable even on this anonymous forum. but it does have some relevance to education.[/quote]
