Our school does NOT lump T with G. They are two VERY separate and clearly defined beasts. It's a good thing for the District because the Gifted percentage stays correct and manageable.
If you allow the line to blur then services for the top kids suffer or become meaningless and you end up with, essentially, nothing or perhaps just some District self-back patting.
This is the "Gifted Issues Discussion Forum". I wasn't looking for the "Lets Smudge the Lines so Everyone Can be Included and Get Services Forum".
