[quote=Anonymous]Why not just change the name of the program from "gifted" to "academically advanced." Then let those kids that are academically advanced for whatever reason get in. Maybe that would motivate those parents aren't prepping their kids to start prepping them if they want them into the advanced group. In-class differentiation is great if you have a fairly homogeneous population such that even if the teacher has to teach down the middle, it's not that far off from the top and bottom learners. But in schools like those on Cap Hill where high SES kids are in class with kids from the projects, in-class differentiation is harder to practice. [/quote]
