[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the students in DD's 5th gr. GT class last year was sent to take Math with a non-GT class because the poor kid could not catch up with the rest. It was so humiliating from the kids' point of view. That student did not apply for MS magnet.
So for parents of kids that were rejected with below median scores, you may want to re-think before filing for appeal.
Just want to provide another angle. [/quote]

I think your post is very unkind.  There are a couple of kids at my child's HGC who leave to take math with a non-GT class.  The children don't judge it.  Unfortunately you seem to judge it (and seem to think there is something "humiliating" about it).  How awful.  Good thing the kids at the center are smarter and kinder than you seem to be.[/quote]

+2 I've got 2 at HGC and there are always a few who are in a non-GT class (or in 4th this year, in non-compacted math) just like there are a handful who are accelerated more than the standard 1 year. The kids do not judge and definitely do not think these students have anything to be ashamed about. I bet some of these are amazing writers and definitely have other talents. [/quote]
