[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Very bright kids can be damaged by not being challenged enough and by not getting an education that addresses their needs. How do we help those kids while avoiding a lot of the problems such as elitism noted in the thread? [/quote] A good start is keeping them in the same school. Different classes, maybe, but the same school. [/quote] For the large number of elementary schools that send 5-10 children to a center school, including mine, how do you propose challenging those 5 gifted children? [/quote] Making a class of the smartest kids in that school, including *gasp* kids who may not have the cut to the center. You do realize that even at your center school some kids are smarter than others and everyone still does fine, right? [/quote]
