Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Basic DYS Info?

I am new here. I keep seeing postings about DYS which sounds really great. Where can I find more info? Or does anyone want to give me the Cliff's Notes version? Thanks!!

I'd start here, and after you process that you can ask specific questions, .

I felt exactly the same when I bumped into this forum and saw DYS being mentioned a lot. At the time I googled my way here without paying any attention to the host.

Some months later, DS became one himself. I'm so thankful that I found this place.

Thanks so much!!! I also posted about my daughter's MAP scores here -- do you all know anything about those??

Oh it looks like since we haven't had her tested yet we can't do this? I am thinking we'll have to wait until the school district decides to test!!
