That said, the parents of kids who score high on the various tests with ok to crappy GBRSs and who are complaining about their child being bored and that is why their behavior is awful are not saying that their kid has ADHD, anxiety, or some other issue that is affecting their behavior in the classroom.

You do realize that 2nd grade is on the very early side for kids to be diagnosed with ADHD, anxiety, etc.  Many high IQ kids with poor behavior in 2nd grade simply haven't yet been diagnosed.  Often, the very high test scores coupled with the bad GBRS is the first red flag many parents have that their child needs to be evaluated.

High IQ kids who are disruptive should be placed in AAP.  There's some chance that they'll be more engaged and will disrupt the class less.  The AAP teachers have at least some training in 2E issues and will be better able to handle them.  The gen ed teachers already have too much on their plate to also handle the bored, disruptive, gifted kids.[/quote]
