[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have more faith in objective testing than I do in the school's ability to identify anything. This system will result in children being admitted of the parents who volunteer the most or brown nose teachers the most.[/quote] Me too. I have a kid with ADD that's never does that great in class. You should have seen how surprised everyone was with his inview test results. Objective tests don't lie. Also there is never much of an opportunity for quiet kids to shine. This won't be good at all. [/quote] Well sadly that is a problem right now... My ADD kid certainly didn't get a good teacher recommendation even though scored well on the entrance test. But I think part of the problem is class performance does in fact matter for the HGC. If you can't keep up in the homeschool how can you keep up at the HGC? I think what they are doing at Matsunaga and Stone mill is great for ADD kids.[/quote]
