[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beneficial for what purpose? It broadens the curriculum. It is not a gifted and talented program.[/quote] Oh, ok random internet person, who clearly knows more than the PhD in gifted ed who created it and parents who have seen their advanced kids directly benefit from it. Let me guess, your opinion goes along the lines of "something something demographics something something"?[/quote] That escalated quickly. Do you disagree with the claim? Do you have a counter-claim? I'd be happy to hear it. I had a child participate in this program for a few years; I'm providing my observations. OP asked if was beneficial. 'Beneficial' has a lot of meanings -- it depends on what it is intended to do. From my perspective, it did not appear to be intended to provide extension directly to kids who are "advanced". But it had the benefit of providing opportunities to broaden the curriculum beyond the regular classroom offerings. I'm no more a "random internet person" that you are - if you disagree, say so, and back it up, but don't be a jerk.[/quote]
