[quote=Anonymous]Just want to make a comment, have 2 FCPS graduates, one was in GT center for grades 3 - 8 and one was not. By the time they get to high school, this all doesn't matter and by the time they are in college it matters even less. there are social reasons for keeping kids OUT of GT that parents should keep in mind. Students in GT are with the same kids through 8th grade then they go to high school, often times with kids they have never had classes with. makes it more difficult socially. My child who was not in GT, had classes with and was close friends with the same kids through elementary middle and high where the GT child had to make all new friends in high school. Might just be our pyramid but something to keep in mind. Teacher quality is really the most important thing to keep in mind, my GT center child had a horrible third grade teacher while my non-GT child had the greatest 3rd grade teacher ever. best wishes.
