Thanks Dottie. Questions.. I have asked by the hundreds. Answers.. I have gotten pretty much none. Although I am sick and tired of how many meetings I had with the teacher, principal and school psychologist (they all have the mantra that "a child has to be a child", which is a good justification for them doing absolutely nothing and promoting under-achievement). I was hoping that I could take these test results and stop by superintendent's office, but what I have right now is garbage (ie 4 lines with results from a test that was improperly scored..). Maybe I'll stop by anyways for lack of a better idea wink. I really need a good examination from a psychologist to tell me if she's slightly above average or way above average. In case one, I'll put her back in private school (she was in a Montessori evironment for 3 years prior to joining the public school), as the public school definitely sucks at this grade level. They are not challenging her nearly enough- she's gone through most of their library in these 3 months of school (after doing a lousy job at her coloring assignments), and she's gotten as good as doing her regular school homework in .. 23 seconds wink. In case two, I am tempted to fight the public school to move her up a grade, in that case, she will definitely be a litlle more challenged... I found a link on the web with psychologists who seem very qualified to assess gifted children, and one of them is in our city-- I wonder if this website is remotely reliable regarding recommendations..
