Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Learning Environments Gifted schools - Are they only for the wealthy?

there IS another option...homeschool. I don't know if that is truly viable for your situation, but I just wanted to be the voice of "hey, other options exist"

I have a friend (on this board)...I chose to pull Butter and place her in our "home study" school. We also have a second child in paid school (so I could get her in kinder at 4.5) and only one income worth mentioning. Our friend has only one child, chose a private school and may have to take a part time job to help pay for it.

I would rather do what I can now to help my child and save the money for later, college, camps, enrichment, etc...I don't think the cost of the school usually guarantees anything other than a pricey bill lol!
