Also, I meant to add that one of my favorite things about the new (gifted) school is that there are kids who are better than DD at some stuff. There is one girl in her class who is a math whiz, and a couple of boys who are awesome at chess, and so on. I appreciate that she has kids in her class whom she admires for their skills and smarts (she verbalizes this). She realizes the world is a bigger pond now--a good thing, believe me.
