[quote=Anonymous]We submitted our WISC during admissions. However, we only did this to provide context to our decision to skip them a grade. In hindsight, I would have moved to private much sooner and kept him in the same grade level, although no issues have arisen. Our GT programs lacked funding. Instead of more challenging work or work at a faster pace, they increased the workload and would make students participate in a group that met during class time. DS would become anxious about missing material and completing missed assignments- it was a bad mix. It was essentially forcing students who were gifted to become high performers. Sally eats two apples, John eats 1. How many apples does it take to bore a student to death? PP said something very similar- It's not the rigor, it's the individualized attention that we knew would help DS thrive. [/quote]
