I'm not sure I wouldn't challenge the who notion of the program as it stands for a GT reader. I mean, what's the goal of AR? To limit what kids read? Or to push them to read more?

If the list of "acceptable" books is too limited, then it seems to me that someone needs to ask if the AR program is counterproductive to the goal of teaching LA to that child. Or perhaps to GT kids in general!

I confess, through these posts, what I'm hearing is the school saying "The bureacracy is more important than the child," and that always gets my dander up! mad
