A new voice from Wisconsin. We live in a rural area of WI that claims to have G/T services, but in reality they do not. My son took the Explorer in 4th grade and when we took the results to his teacher she said "Good for you"...not the response for which I was hoping. The school said they would "differentiate" for him, but the teachers tell me they do not know how to differentiate. Finally after years of meetings, in 6th grade the school wrote a Differentiated Education Plan" DEP for my son which the teacher signed, but NEVER IMPLIMENTED.
Our state, WI mandates services for GT kids. Does anyone know what our rights are? The DEP was not worth the paper on which it was written.
Hi, WI GT parent1!
You would probably get more replies if you start a new thread. Go back to the parenting and advocacy forum and use the new topic button in the upper left corner.
