[quote=Anonymous]13:10, I am the sock-puppet and I agree with you. I belive in what you said too, in regards to the diagnostic and remedial testing. This either you'r e in or you're out way of thinking can be racially divided. Again, there are not enough G&T children in DCPS to fill a classroom of a decent size. You might have a smither here and there but not a true school population. It's not the AA community lack of experience with G&T but it is the "snake-oil" person who's trying make it seem that it is better than slice bread. I feel and I have experienced it first hand, that many school personnel are their own worst enemies when trying to entice AA families into beneficial programs. All of sudden everyone wants to become the Jack Nicholson character in a movie. They want to give you the dialogue of "you want the truth but you can't handle the truth." As a result, all of sudden we are back to square one with the skeptical look at those in charge of the program. If my child gets into a G&T is he/she exceptional or an experiment? Do I disregard the dialogue of honesty from a well respected educator? You only get one chance with your child's public-school's education, what does one really do with it?[/quote]
