Our school has an integrated kindergarten (where kids with special needs are mixed with the 'general' population). My daughter starts K this year, and she got put intot that class. I'm very concerned. While she's not been tested yet, her older brother is gifted and I think it's at least highly likely that she is as well. My biggest fear is that she will get no attention (because the special needs kids require more time, understandably) and that she may react by either 1) disengaging ('why bother') or 2) by getting attention however she can (e.g., misbehaving).
Has anyone ever been through this? Can you either reassure me or convince me that I need to get her changed? I don't want to be "that parent," but I also don't want anything to detrimentally affect her education.
