[quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Wow, some interesting comments shared.  Thank you for sharing.  For my child we applied to HGC and to a private.  Home school has not been the best choice for her.  The only reason we waited it out was because we were supplementing at home.  We decided to wait and try for HGC instead of just pulling out for private immediately.  We did not get an email yesterday, so DD was obviously not accepted.  It's a shame though.  There are many smart/gifted etc kids that will not be accepted (way to many kids and to few spots). DH and I are just making sure we are doing the best for DD, and we think that will be private at this point.  I was hoping there would be enough challenge/differentiation at home school, but it has not been the case so far.  So, I cannot see that changing for 4th and 5th grade.

For those posters who think this is about setting up kids to go to HPY, it's not that for us at all.  It's about DD liking school and feeling challenged (her words not ours).  [/quote]
