[quote=Anonymous]""MCPS identifies tons and tons of kids as GT - more so than could possibly be "gifted" in a usual sense of the word" So, they've got it wrong for all kinds of reasons. So, why don't you ask them to get it right? " Because I don't imagine my child is likely to be geninuely gifted, but I do think she might fall in the GT group as currently defined and my main concern - in a red zone school - is that she be able to work at her own pace w/ other similar kids. If the only formal program to try to encourage/push for that is thru GT identification, then I'll use that. If tomorrow they want to call all kids working above grade level but not truly "gifted", the purple team, then I will advocate that the purple team kids need to be able to work at their own paces and put with similar peer groups.
