My wife and I went through a great.deal.of.hassle while advocating for our son's (YS2003) needs in public school. Fortunately, we're in Pennsylvania which has strong laws in favor of the gifted child - if the parent knows how to use them properly, which is a big 'if'.
Having made it through that particular wilderness, and after a couple of years speaking to parents groups about gifted advocacy, I put together a site specific to Pennsylvania which addresses gifted ed issues. The site is here:
Applied Gifted Ed website It differs from Hoagies (and to an extent the Davidson Gifted Database) in that the focus of the site is on what happens during your Gifted IEP meeting with the district and how to take what you've learned about giftedness and make it mean something.
