[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, all CES are focused on reading and writing?  Why?[/quote]

Because the CES program is officially humanities-based, with a special curriculum.  The math (including compacted math) and science curricula are the same as at other elementary schools (officially, anyway, although perhaps some CES teachers include additional challenges or projects). [/quote]

At our CES, the material is exactly the same for science and compacted math.  As a matter of fact, sometimes the general ed and CES kids have science together.[/quote]

OP here. I never knew that. I guess I thought the entire curriculum was “advanced”. [/quote]
DP... maybe things have changed...but when my DC was in HGC a few years ago they had a specific science project that my 5th grader DC now in home school hasn't done. I don't know if they plan on doing this later in the year.    The Center kids were also required to take part in the school's science fair, while for my now 5th grader, the science fair at the home school is optional.[/quote]
