[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There’s a wonderful gifted school that’s near our home in Los Angeles.  For acceptance my kids would need to be IQ tested (138 minimum) next year for kindergarten.  How do I know if it’s even worth thinking about?

DS isn’t reading yet but knows alphabet and phonetics; his verbal abilities (vocabulary) are impressive; he can retell a story with a beginning, middle, and end; he is very strong when it comes to finding solutions and loves being read to.

He’s average and not really interested in puzzles.  No second language.  Seems normal in most physical areas.

I honestly don’t know if this school is even worth pursuing.  His preschool teachers say he’s very bright but I assume they say that to all the parents.  [/quote]

Give it a shot! You never know. We had to get our daughter tested for private school admissions. She tested at 135, so I guess she would’ve just missed the cutoff for that school. She has always had a very well-developed vocabulary. She is very creative, and absolutely adores puzzles. [/quote]
