[quote=Anonymous]Not sure why the poster from the last page decided to resurrect this thread after more than a month, other than to bash a parent over their thought that highly gifted kids might not be getting needs met by MCPS due to the artificial scarcity from underfunding/underplanning and the resulting lottery measures.  Sheesh.

The OP's post was a bit tone deaf.  Probably would have been better to state the concern about CogAT not being administered, title the thread accordingly, focus on the clear effect of highly gifted kids not having their needs met (advocating for more GT programming overall in the same breath, as there clearly is not enough to meet the needs of the many students who would benefit from it) and only briefly mention that MCPS might do something like claim difficulty administering it for VA students as some kind of equity-based justification for failing, there, when the truth might be more that they are seeking to reduce GT programming in the first place, undercutting it wherever they can short of blatant actions that might draw the ire of MSDE and energize the voting public against them.

Instead, we got yet another Covid thread with the usual talking at each other without listening, conceding reasonable points or building a better understanding.  Oh well.  It was fun reading the post from last month about how the spike protein wouldn't change in a viable way...[/quote]
