[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I think it's funny that a thread I started mostly to complain about posters cluttering other threads with GTA advertising is now 7 pages of reasonably substantive discussion[/quote]

It's not funny.  Conclusion... your silly complaints fell on deaf ears.[/quote]

Seriously, just look at the "I am not with the GTA" folks posting in defense of the GTA and then vanishing when you ask a substantive question.  And, really, how can they be a worthwhile organization for GT when GT went to hell on their watch.

Their president chased his tail claiming Labelgate when MCPS wanted to get rid of the label.  Now he is trying to pretend that it aint the label that matters.  Here is what the Post reported ""What matters is what the kids are going to get, not what they're labeled," said Louise Epstein, a Fairfax parent. " (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/12/15/AR2008121503114.html)

The GTA is a bunch of [b]eastern MoCo parents trying to get their kids a label so that they feel good.  Nothing more[/b].[/quote]

It is evident that you do not live in eastern MoCo.  Come on over here with your family, send your kids to a local ES for a few years, and then ... we'll talk again.  [/quote]

Hon, I live in Takoma Park!!!  And yes, my kids went to school here.  Ability grouping is fine--just don't mess with gifted education to push that agenda.  Your wanting the label for your kids is fine just don't mess with GT to get it.  [/quote]

Look at the condescending tone you are using and then you claim GTA people attack others? Is GT patented by you that no one else can use? You can have your definition in your home. Rest of the MCPS will use the definition MCPS has come up with until it is changed.[/quote]
