Umm.... I have heard our school district is awful for gifted students (DD is 2 and 1/2 so not in school yet) but already has mastered 3/4 of end of year K4 skills and 1/2 of end of year K5 skills. I had been holding out some hope even after talking to numerous people who have said negative things about our district, but after reading this....I was just WOW, yeah I can see why they are not good for gifted students.

This is their policy as stated for Learning Enrichment/Gifted Support

"As much as possible, the activities and services provided shall be integrated within the regular education program allowing for the inclusion of able learners and minimizing the need for Individualized Gifted Support Services IEPs."

Umm, just wow...minimizing the need for gifted IEPs frown Needless to say I am not holding out much hope for our district after reading this.
