Thanks for the replies! I think it makes sense to wait. If we had a self-contained gifted option it would be a different story. I do think maturity might be an issue, and I would hate to spend all of that $ and not a reliable result due to that. She seems to enjoy school and I really don't believe she is any type of 2e so there is no need at this point for full evaluation. I guess we will see what happens in the fall! She may even mature enough that I will comfortable going with the cheaper, good, but not expert-in-giftedness tester that we used for dd12.
I am sure there is a huge gang of parents who think their child is gifted here, so if the screener doesn't pick her up next year, I will be put into that gang. I think 40% of dd12's 5th grade class here was in pull-out. Oh well!
Zenscanner--I like your questions. Dd doesn't share a ton of what goes on at school. She brings tons of worksheets home.
She has to be in the right mood to tell us any details though...
