[quote=Anonymous]It won't make a difference as long as there is no onhoing communication with the school and teacher. Ask them about identification. Ask them the specifics. What is being employed that provides the differential, enriched education required under Maryland law for GT-identified students? Read the statute so you know what should be expected, but be prepared to accept their explanations, if reasonable, even though they might not be entirely as anticipated/hoped. There is curricular material that MCPS has in hand for this. Local schools have many challenges, though, and it's when families don't communicate/request the specifics that this tends to slip through. It's a shame that MCPS upper brass feels negatively toward appropriately meeting GT need, and that that attitude, combined with general under-resourcing, enables the local school negligence.[/quote]
