[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the problem is FCPS still looks at its gifted program as one of high achivement vs one of potentional, which is what giftedness is. If it actually started doing that I think it would capture more 2E kids, minorities, and truly gifted children. Many gifted people were not/are not high achievers. [/quote] Where are you getting the idea that FCPS looks at its gifted program as one of high achievement? Everything I have seen and heard about the program is that it isn't.[/quote] The holistic process captures a lot of high achievers with mediocre test scores. Also, kids who are high achievers are likely to be viewed more positively by their teachers and thus receive a higher GBRS. [/quote]
