[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'll never forget the mom who told me loudly --in front of a group of kids--that her daughter was just "devastated" that she didn't get in the GT program. This was years ago. She appealed and got in.[/quote] That's terrible, a second grader should not be devastated :o( Why is this so prevalent in some schools? My children's school has a huge asian population and my son had no clue what aap was when we finally told him. I don't think there's a buzz going on. Or maybe because he is a boy and his current interests are more in playing than studying and girls are more aware? It is still sad, and all it is is parents telling their children all about the program, prepping, hyping the program up and putting undue pressure on their 7/8/9 year olds. [/quote]
