[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Tons of gifted kids in MCPS "W" feeder schools. [/quote] Which is to say tons of highly achieving kids in W schools - not necessarily gifted. [/quote] People often confuse high-acheiving with "highly gifted". My daughter is high-achieveing type student. In math, for example, she works hard and does her work so she gets a perfect or near perfect grade. My son, who has an IQ above 145 does not want to do his homework because it's too easy and fools around in class, but still gets every answer correct on the tests. (My daughter is, however, a very "gifted" writer and her teachers have been amazed since K of her abilities-I don't want to feel like I'm diminishing her intellect. haha! She has never been tested so I have no idea of her IQ...) [/quote]
