[quote=Anonymous]I can also add that my son tested off the charts for giftedness in public school, but his inability to stay regulated during the school day left him unable to access those abilities with 30 plus kids around him. Now, he gets one on one academic attention and is working one, sometimes two grades ahead of what he would be doing in AAP in public school. It's like having the attention of homeschooling with the social structure of a school. You just can't find that combination of training anywhere. If my son continues on this path, I could easily see him as a solid candidate for certain magnet schools. It will really come down to ability and performance and the best chance of bringing that out is in finding the appropriate learning environment. For us, that definitely was Newton.[/quote]
