[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teacher here, the “gifted” program is a misnomer. The children recognized for it are bright or talented. Gifted is a unique trait and I may have seen one truly gifted child who was also autistic. He went on to one of the top specialized schools in the country and not sure what happened since. [/quote] Look, we didn’t name the programs. No one is talking about their kid is the next Bill Gates. The programs in most districts have the word “gifted” on the or academically talented. This is what the subject is about. And every kid in class isn’t in this program. Most aren’t. [/quote] So thank you for acknowledging that these kids are not gifted. [/quote] Maybe you should lobby the school board to change the name if it bothers you this much[/quote] People like yourself would no longer be able to say their kid is gifted and that would bother you so much.
