And btw you're the one who wants a lower proportion of AA kids in AAP by making it more restrictive. [/quote]

No, you are missing the point.  [b]The program should be treated like a special needs program.  [/b]Kids that are so advanced they aren't really able to participate in regular classrooms should be placed in an environment that helps them achieve their potential.

The rest of them should be TOGETHER.  Helping each other, learning from each other, challenging each other.  The idea is to bring the bottom UP, not the top DOWN. [/quote]

Be careful for what you wish.  [i]If[/i] the gifted program were treated like special education, then Least Restrictive Environment would prevail and it would lead to the end of the Center model and the local level IV program would be it - with the exception of a handful of students and they would be bused across the county to the one program that meets their needs.
