[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with the above. [b]Why the heck should a child that doesn't care about school be given a prized spot at an HGC?[/b] Would suggest that OP goes to a private school that can help a boy that doesn't really care about much of anything, and allow his spot to go to a boy or girl that would die for a chance.[/quote] Because the people who make the admissions decisions (who are not you, me, or the OP) decided that the child met the criteria for admission. It's the Center for Enriched Studies, not the Center for Highly Motivated Children.[/quote] NP. But since there are limited spots I think it makes sense that students who have already demonstrated that they care about and will make the most of their studies should be given the spots to engage in enriched studies. Everyone needs to earn what they want to benefit from.[/quote]
