[quote=Anonymous]For those who push hard for GT in all schools... There ARE some kids who really don't flourish in regular school environments. I know b/c I have one. B/c of the TPES/PBES split, he's now been in 4 schools. HGC is the FIRST school where he's happy, social and likes school. (That's not a slight on the Takoma schools, btw, as our older child who's also in a magnet thrived at those schools). I agree that schools should offer more advancement in general in more environments, but I feel strongly that the HGCs and magnets are needed for very top kids like him.[/quote]
