In the lower elementary grades? Unfortunately no good stories from us. My DD(now)13's public elementary school experience drove us to a private K-5 school.

Public schools seem better equipped to deal with true giftedness in middle and high schools than in elementary. It seems the lower grades take the wait and see (or maybe wait and it'll be someone else's problem) approach.

For gifted children, doing nothing is the wrong choice.
