Here, the teachers get together as a group and decide the 'best fit' for the next year. So, I'm wondering how GS got teacher 'B' for 4th grade when the wonderful(I mean that sincerely!) 3rd grade teacher who thought GS should have teacher 'A' for 4th grade? And GS, who doesn't really like to be singled out, was the only kiddo in his classroom that went out for the gifted pullout class every day. I really think it's roll of the dice here, but they do try really hard not to group kids by ability in the average classroom through the 5th grade.
Aahh well, a new school year starts in 1 week. The teacher he has this year has the best teacher website at his school, imo. She has tons of interesting links, that's impressed GS & me. I don't know if any of the other gifted kids are in his classroom but his BFF from last year is in his class again. He's not identified as gifted, but he's a good and concientious student, that's good for GS.
One more year and we get the the middle school, and hopefully more challenge.
