[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son has a very similar profile as your daughter. Strongly recommend you consider looking in MoCo. My son has thrived in the HGC, which in my experience does cater to gifted (and 2E) kids, and not just bright kids/high achievers. The teaching approach in his 4th grade classroom recognizes that the kids are not simply smart/hard working, but in many cases wired differently, and teaches them to understand and work with their abilities; it teaches them how to learn rather than focusing on teaching them content. There is also a recognition that many kinds in the program are sensitive/empathetic and prone to stress and anxiety as a result, and an effort to address that through a focused mindfulness initiative that includes daily exercises.
