How would you tell people if your child left a school to go to a Gifted School?
I've tried a few different ways to explain our school change and nothing feels right. Most people want to know why. I don't want to tell everyone the kids are gifted. This feels like labling and bragging. It feels like if I say they needed more challenge or they have indivual learning plans like we think we are better than their kids. Do I just need to get use to this or is there a better way?
Last year, a friend said her child in my son's grade was really struggling. She wanted to now how much time my son studied and did Homework. I said you shouldn't compare. My straight A son was putting no effort into school. She got insulted and said her boy was smart too. I want to avoid this sort of situation.
any advise would be appreciated.
