[quote=Anonymous]Gifted identification means absolutely nothing and doesn’t even accurately line up to future success in high school or college, much less life. My son is on track to be valedictorian at his private HS this year (they only have 1) and he was not labeled until the last month in 8th grade in APS even though he was on his way out the door and he scored very high in all testing, CogaT, inventories, etc. and was a very well behaved kid in class. He was always a straight A student and never needed our help or a tutors help. I never even checked his assignments or even knew what they were by 5th grade. He was all self-sufficient and self-motivated. I had never been in Canvas or parentvue. My husband scored a perfect 1600 on his SATs back in 1990 and was never gifted id. It’s a joke. He had all 5 on AP exams too. [/quote]
