Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment NWEA scores

Yep, that's about how my face looked during the whole conference!

My DS8 took MAP tests in school twice a year. His scores were off the chart since 1st grade and improved consistently. But when I asked about the interpretation about the scores, the teacher only copy&paste the blah blah and refused to discuss anything further. I tried to keep cool in the conference since I knew it was kind of waste of time if the teacher considered it as "non-issue" and did not prepare to talk about it. Not until a new principal came, and he noticed that my DS did not even fit the 4th grade gifted math classroom with his MAP math at 260 above 99percentile at 6th grade. So he quickly arranged a meeting with the middle school principal and now DS goes to 6th gifted math class in the early morning and the big kids would escort DS back to elementary just in time to start his regular classes.

Yippee! Wow erich, what a great experience. I hope your son enjoys the academics and social interactions.
