Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Just getting started...

Thanks for the continued welcomes and responses.

Thanks, for that info Dottie ...that is why I posted all the score details, because based on some similar scores I have seen on this site, I wasn't sure how 156 was calculated (it seemed high to me). I'm calling the Dr. back today because in all the excitement I forgot to ask about some sort of official report or test results. I'm assuming this is needed for DYS and other purposes (and personal records).

Thanks for the book reference, Dazed. There is so much content out there, it's hard to pick where to start. I think our first focus is going to be to understand better what the PS disctrict and his school can offer. As Kriston said, it's hard to beat a free education. And, it's a large, highly ranked district, for whatever that is worth...we'll see. I'm a little concerned about grade skipping - and how he would handle it. He is a very sensitive boy, although fun, outgoing, personable, too. It's just when he gets upset, he tends to get very upset. And, I also wonder if a grade skip would really give him what he needs...maybe, maybe not...not sure how to answer that question...
