[quote=Anonymous]My oldest in is in 3rd Grade at a school EOTP, and honestly, the problem isn't the standards or any watering-down -- the resources are there if you ask for them, and (our kid's teachers at least) have always pushed my kid to achieve at his highest level. The problem for us is making sure that our child is demanding the most from himself. While he has other high-achieving kids in his class, it's too easy for him to do the minimum and not push himself to do more. I grew up in a gifted track where classroom competition was intense. I thrived in that atmosphere, but at the same time, I knew quite a few that crumbled under that intensity.[/quote]
