[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I'm sure too. There are probably 3 of them, maybe 4. They're not at your DD's school though. Not at my DD's school either. The point of a gifted program is to bring together peers. Your DD had no peers. Neither would this hypothetical "I'm sure she exists" child. [/quote] I'm sure there are a very small number of kids at that level, too. They would all be such extreme outliers that there's no way the kid is fine in regular school and no way that the parents would be so nonchalant about it. Kids like that are the types who attend college at age 12. If kids at the 99.999th percentile are just sitting in a regular classroom, then their parents did an especially poor job of advocating for their kids. I'm not sure where people are getting the idea that LOTR is 6th grade reading level. Scholastic says it's grades 9-12 and beyond a DRA 70. Lexile measures are especially poor and are essentially meaningless for reading level. [/quote]
