I was really surprised how enlivened she was. It is a very telling sign that we're on the right track. That alone was worth the price of the test!
Yup - my son was like that - even as a Middle schooler taking the college enterance SATs. He said it was like being inside a giant puzzle.
So now you know 3 things:
1) She is definitely gifted.
2) She is unusually gifted enough that even local experts may not really 'get' her.
3) Private schools that refer to themselves as gifted still may not really 'get' her.
Welcome to the land of 'trail and error.' You've actually been living in this land for a while now, but perhaps have never been officially welcomed!
So what are your possibilities for finding a good fit environment?
Do you plan to ask for a full skip to get the ball rolling?
Are you going to look at some of the local private schools?
Best Wishes,
Grinity
