[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You forgot the "for the Gifted" tag. This is very important.[/quote] I hear the sarcasm but am missing the why. [/quote] 1) It’s a for-profit school that is not limited to gifted students (any more than FCPS AAP is a "gifted" program), just average+ kids whose parents can afford tuition 2) It’s obnoxious and kind of hilarious at academic competitions when the kids announce they’re from "Nysmith School for the Gifted" and then get smoked by (gasp) public school students from Rachel Carson 3) The teacher qualifications are less than the local public school system with no teacher cert requirement, much less gifted training/endorsement[/quote]
