[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] AAP is nice to have but it isn't a gifted program, it really doesn't meet the needs of the kids who are in the 99th percentile and curious. [/quote] So what, in your opinion, should the parents of those 99ers do? Home school? Private school? AAP + a lot of tutoring?[/quote] Enrichment. We are using RSM with the math competition program to keep math interesting for our kid. We started him in a language in 1st grade with language immersion and have kept him enrolled in MS. He works on science concepts he finds interesting at home. We discuss history and social sciences at home. He attends public school. Most of the 99% kids look pretty "normal" in school. They do fine with honors and AP/IB classes. They might not need as much time to grasp the material as other kids but there is a reasonable workload. [/quote]
