Gardengirl, is ELP the same as the gifted specialist? She's the one who told me that the CogAT was an IQ test, so she's not inspiring the most confidence right now.

We are going to get his IQ tested. At this point, I need to know what to do for DS, whether in the school system or on our own.

Did any of you feel that pushing it with the school put a target on your kids back? I'm sure I'm over-reacting, but I hadn't been contacted about behavior problems or incomplete work until we brought this up. I'm not saying that DS in an angel, he's tough, but the timing seems interesting to me. She may have just seen it as an opportunity to inform us of what was going on...who knows.

All of this is mind-boggling to me.
