In mulling over your response, I am leaning toward waiting a week or two before intervening. Thinking about how school and her social life has been, this is the first big (unexpected) shock to her world that she didn't see anything positive about.
I do not know how the other students feel about her, but in conversations with her teacher, she will say without provocation that she would love an entire classroom full of dd.
At home, she is very much supported and loved and has friends in the neighborhood. So this is not really a global issue, just at school and only in response to the absence of other GT kids in her class.
I'll talk to her again after school today and see if she is feeling any better about things.
Thank you for the questions, the answers put a better prespective on what is really happening, I hope.
