[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How does enrollment in the HGC impact admission to top private schools for middle school. I would assume it would be an advantage. Is this correct? Does anyone have specific experience?[/quote] We turned down the HGC because we knew 4th and 5th were strong at our home school. Two years later he was accepted into a top private for middle school. A friend had the same pattern: turned down the HGC and ended up at a top private for middle. Anecdotal, not data, I know. My guess would be that a kid who can qualify for a HGC will be very competitive if you decide to go private, because you know s/he tests well, excels academically, and can write. I don't think the private schools care so much whether you attended an HGC or one of the many excellent elementary schools in Montgomery County.[/quote]
