Master of None - thanks so much for your reply. It illustrates almost all the issues that I am concerned with. I'm sorry that the situation has become so complicated for you.
I completely sympathize with your daughter and understand where she is coming from. Could you possibly talk to her teachers and ask that they change their policy on making grades public? I would never let anyone else know what I got on a test, everything was "OK".
We are in Howard County and it has no GT until fourth grade. The county GT office suggested that I talk with the school GT coordinator. I've been hesitant at the moment because it feels like going over everyone's head. I keep hoping that as soon as all this promised assessment comes about they will understand and be looking for a solution along with me. I keep thinking "it's only a couple of weeks more" but it is so frustrating!
