[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It really doesn’t matter. The “gifted services” at APS are lip service. At Williamsburg, my kid’s teacher didn’t even know they were identified as gifted at parent teacher conferences when I asked about differentiation. It’s just in place to make striver Arlington parents feel better. I believe APS is mostly able meet the needs of children who are gifted in Math, but English is a joke. [/quote] At least in elementary, math isn’t differentiated in any meaningful way, either. It’s a complete farce. The English curriculum actually looks like it could differentiate if someone attempted to do it. I had no idea how terrible APS was for gifted education and I am so sad at our experience. [/quote] Where would you have gone if given a chance for a redo? Do privates do better at this? It seems like they would have limited resources[/quote]
