Today, I spoke with her teacher, and asked her if she's willing to write recommendation for DD7 to apply for DYS. She was reluctant because she believed DD7 was really bright but not gifted. Then, she felt bad about saying this to me and apologized, but I told her not to worry because I myself was still trying to wrap my head around her test results!
That's pretty much the reaction we've had regarding dd11 from teachers. Her 2nd grade teacher told me that it was going to be "interesting for [me] having one gifted child and one high child." When I asked about what a "high" child was, she clarified that dd11 was bright but probably not gifted. When tested later that year, she had DYS level scores (GAI and close on VCI).
