The school refers to it as "the other spectrum of special needs" since right not, there is no gifted program/ resources planned for it.
This is what I use when tackling issues with the school system. How can you create all these great programs, classes, etc for kids with LD, BD, MR, etc, yet there is direction when it comes to the other side? Granted, my state has programs, but there is no rhyme or reason to how kids are tested for them, etc... no standards.
And just like you will have behavioral issues when a child on one side of that spectrum is placed in an environment that doesn't suit his/her needs, you can't expect it NOT to happen on the other side of the spectrum.
