I'm especially interested in this topic lately because I believe that my DD is dyslexic (and probably me as well). Thankfully she was able to be identified gifted by the school district, but I suspect she is higher LOG than anyone on the outside could see. I think of her as my iceberg. My district is working on changing the identification assessment tools and I am on an advisory committee that has the opportunity to put my two cents in. I'm not a professional in this field but an interested parent. I feel that the GATE program has become more of a high achiever program and that the method of identification has contributed to that.
