As so often, I agree with MON. One of our gifted teachers had never been to an IEP meeting in 30+ years of teaching. But she really, really got DS, quirks and all; she was firm and fair with him and it really worked.

So much depends on the individual teacher, but so far our experience is that gifted ed. teachers are invested in out-of-the-box kids, and that it can work well.

Don't panic yet, ABQ!
