I just want to know what to expect in the coming months/rest of 4th grade and onto 5th.  I've heard rave reviews of past years and I would like to know how/whether it has changed and whether there are still the same benefits.  [/quote]

I suggest e-mailing the teacher and asking for a conference.

She's not into conferences.  [/quote]

What does "she's not into conferences" mean?

It is her job to accommodate your reasonable request for a conference. If I were you, I would write an e-mail to the teacher like this:  "Dear [Teacher], I am [child's] [parent]. I am having concerns about whether the HGC is the right place for my child, because [reasons]. Would you be available for a conference to discuss this? I am available at [various dates and times]. Or is there another time that would be better for you? Thanks, [name]."

If the teacher then responds that everything is fine and there's no need for a conference, then you respond, "Thank you for your reassurance, but I would feel more comfortable talking about these issues with you face to face. It shouldn't take more than 20 minutes. Would you be available any time this week or next week?" AND CC THE PRINCIPAL.[/quote]
