Thanks everyone! We are new to gifted/Davidson and so it's all very overwhelming. I was hoping to get in and get our feet wet with Summit but I guess I was just getting ahead of myself....since he's not been accepted yet. And the confidentiality agreement explains why I couldn't find any info about it. So thanks for pointing that out.
For those of you who are familiar, does Davidson Institute only take 'profoundly gifted'? It seems there's some disagreement on the varying levels of giftedness. And, our son is our oldest child, so we have tended to overlook his quirks and just write them off as a unique personality. I'm trying to explain to family members some of what is going on (he's 2E Gifted + ADHD + some other issues yet to be named) and they keep saying "well, lots of kids are gifted". His psychologist who did his testing didn't really give a 'level' to his giftedness, but she recommended we apply for DYS. I see on the website it says 'profoundly gifted' so I guess I'm just surprised that our son may be in that category. It's kind of intimidating for me really....sort of like, I'm proud, but it frightens the daylights out of me.
