PM me if you want more specifics/examples, happy to share what we have.

Staff treats gifted resources and information as if it is top secret in our area as well and what they do share is often just meant to scare people off and is inaccurate. There is so much secrecy and misinformation to it all and then they complain that low SES and minorities are underrepresented. I don't know how they expect anyone without a lot of time and resources to be able to navigate the system and get past their misinformation. Our Gifted info sessions are our best effort to address that (although I wish we could do even more to reach out to even more parents).
