Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Need help - high test score, no accomodation

I do not disagree that your child should be supported as a gifted child, and I encourage you to keep advocating for services. I do want to let you know that it might not be as bad as it seems to have your child in a regular classroom, but it all depends on your child's teacher. My child with a 139 PRI on the WISC has absolutely had her needs met in the regular classroom this year. They have been met, though, by a teacher and an assistant teacher who both parent gifted children themselves. It just all depends on the willingness of the teacher to differentiate and on the personality of the child. Good luck with your efforts in getting your child serviced!
