We applied to DYS on behalf of DD7 last summer. Her "IQ" score--152/99.9% on the Woodcock-Johnson Cognitive made the cut-off, but her Broad Reading was 99.8% so we submitted a portfolio. She wasn't accepted.

I'm wondering if anyone has had the experience of re-applying and how it went? Did you submit another portfolio? Did you have testing done again and somehow it made the cut?

I'm on year two of "the lost year" at DD's school and after a principal meeting yesterday, have little faith that (a) he knows anything much about truly high ability kids and (b) that anything much is going to change. I could just use some support. smile

Thanks!
