I received a letter from the school. DD9, in 4th grade has FINALY been identified as 'gifted and talented'...

But it doesn't matter! They have already been treating her as as a TAG student and this will get her nothing but a spot on the list. At least I can stop thinking I'm crazy. Maybe the ID will help her get a scholarship to one of the private schools around here. Maybe it will be good for something.

I have been asked to attend a planning and placement team meeting with other parents of newly identified gifted kids. Hopefully I will feel a little better after that. If anything, it will be nice to see who the 'others' are!
