I'm on the East Coast. Yes, there are probably many advanced children here. I'm trying to ferret out other parents to determine the general climate. (You don't know the ability of children so it is often best to say nothing.) I think it will be very teacher dependent next year. They also could be canceling or modifying the gifted program and that could be why she is not going to be in it. I'm wondering if they are moving it up to a higher grade level and don't wish to rile up parents for summer. Thanks for the data. I'm hoping to meet with the teacher when school starts to see if something can be arranged.
