I didn't go back and re-read this whole thread, but I think at the time (5 months ago!) I was arguing that *schools* tend to be more willing to ID math-talented kids than language-GT kids and to accomodate them. Maybe insufficiently, but at least with something.

At our local schools, a weekly GT pull-out begins at 4th grade in math only. Language-talented kids get nothing until 6th grade. By 6th grade, the math pull-out has become daily math class for GT kids. It's only weekly for language arts, even in 6th grade.

Is that enough for HG+ math-GT kids? Not hardly! But it's still a heck of a lot more than the school does for the HG+ language-GT kids.
