[quote=Anonymous]I would think that most teachers aren't going to mention the word "gifted"...ever. Don't ask them if they think your kid is gifted. It puts them in a horrible position. Would you want to be asked that question? It wouldn't be easy to say no, even if the teacher felt it was the honest truth. Teachers are smarter than you think, and 99% of the time, they want what is best for the kids in their class. My very quiet but exceedingly bright daughter got into AAP on the first round last year. I never mentioned the program to her teachers and they never mentioned it either, but apparently they knew what she needed. I am hoping it works out the same way for my son who in my opinion needs the program even more than my daughter did. Have a little faith in the teachers and in the system. It's not perfect, but it works. [/quote]
