[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My child is just applying for a CES, but I have friends whose children went through a HGC when it was still called 'HGC', and, according to them, their kids studied vocabulary in 4th grade LA class using 6-grade level vocab textbooks. [b]Now, if those children don't get into a magnet, they'd have to return to their home middle school [/b]and in their LA class they will have to face the same standard on-level curriculum they went through two years ago. Well, maybe, not exactly the same, but you get my drift. Pushing each other to do better might be a moot point, since there won't be too much 'pushing' needed. [/quote] This is what happened to my kid, and to all of the other kids who didn't get into the middle school magnet in her HGC class. Was it all for the best in the best of all possible worlds? No. Was it a catastrophe? No. Did she languish? No.[/quote]
