[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just make sure you are wanting support for "giftedness" vs. being high performing. There are very few schools that really focus on neurological "giftedness" but tons in this area where kids who are super duper smart and high performing (no matter their technical IQ in different areas) - including most of the exclusive privates, many MoCo schools (including Blair magnet), Fairfax schools (including TJ magnet) etc. So depends also what you are trying to get out of it for your kids.[/quote] Agreed, but also make sure that the level of advancement for the program matches your child's level of advancement. Many "gifted" programs are working only one grade level ahead, which is useless if your child is well beyond that level, and if the program doesn't have the flexibility to differentiate upward for your child.
