I am all for this. I do worry that if the regional programs are expanded more bright kids from our school will leave and that there will no longer be a group of strong peers to be role models for the rest of the kids like DC. [b]I wish they could figure out ways to bring more of the HGC type programming to neighborhood schools.[/b] I wouldn't want them to ability group classes but even one intellectually challenging pull out group a week would make a huge difference.[/quote]

They are doing that.[/quote]

How is this happening? Don't see any evidence at our school which is one of those where 80 or more percent are identified as gifted.[/quote]

Are they finally teaching to potential in the neighborhood schools or not?  Tracking?  Differentiation is back after being taken out for Common Core curriculum 2.0?
Many of us are not going to put our children in a 1 hour early morning and late afternoon bus ride to a HGC.[/quote]
