I definitely think this programming should be there for MG-HG kids and it's fabulous your daughter is enjoying her set up and is being challenged. But there should also be additional programming or flexibility available for those beyond that level as well.
We have a full time gifted programming in my city we were really excited to get into. But it's really a very base GT program that works great for kids that are happy in a regular classroom, perhaps working between grade level and 1-2 grade levels ahead. Almost half the student body at our old school would qualify for this program, so it really wasn't all that much better than what we had before. This is the best our city has to offer. I've written several letters on this topic to our school district (none that were acknowledged!).
