[quote=Anonymous]OP, I'm in the same boat. Not the testing, but my kids' pre-K teacher sat my spouse and I down to tell us that our son is very advanced -- she described an "encyclopedic brain" and a strong thirst to always learn more that she said we should encourage. She said we need to make sure we are keeping the child challenged. We are in a WOTP school and plan to see how things go the next couple of years and plan to get some music lessons and other enrichment outside school. And if we feel like this kid needs more, we would move to Montgomery County. I do think it's a real weakness of the DC system that there's no gifted program -- or adequate services for kids with special needs on the other end -- and if I could do it over again, I wouldn't have bought a house in the district because of it.[/quote]
