[quote=Anonymous]Speyer definitely fills a niche- especially for white/ORM bright children with late cycle birthdays. Hunter accepts only 25 boys/25 girls, equally spread across birth dates and demographics - so even if your child made it to Round 2 and did well at the play visit, it doesn't necessarily translate to a spot. TT schools redshirt the summer birthdays. Meanwhile, 2Ts don't have the same infrastructure to support a highly gifted child - they tend to focus on enrichment rather than acceleration, especially in the early years. If your child is truly advanced, and the options are a 2T this year, redshirting for a potential spot at a TT, or Speyer, it's understandable why Speyer becomes a compelling option.[/quote]
