[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The general concept of pooling to create peer groups in sufficient numbers as well as more efficiently providing resources like teachers with appropriate credentials isn’t a terrible one. The devil is in the details as usual. The move to local level IV as others have said has its own set of problems and for some-to-many students will lead to reduced opportunities/rigor if centers are phased out. Just my two cents.[/quote] I really don't think that's true if they group the kids correctly...[/quote] There's a reason no association for gifted kids is a fan of clustering. None. It doesn't work.[/quote] But aap doesn't equal gifted....right?[/quote] Fair, but the gifted kids are mixed in with the rest of AAP (mom of 2 non-gifted AAP kids and 1 borderline/possibly gifted AAP kid, but no "wow she's a genius" types)[/quote]
