Some background:
DS took the WIPPSI in 2006 before entering Kindergarten, FSIQ 150(>99.9 percentile). He is now 8, has been attending a private gifted school all along (grades K-3). He's bored. He doesn't want to go to school anymore. He has never found anything a challenge except work that is not clearly right/wrong answers(like giving his opinion and doing unstructured creative writing). He's a math/science/computers kid. He is a perfectionist. I had him take the WISC-IV last week with a psychologist, it was the happiest I've seen DS in a while. He is eager to take the achievement test I have scheduled for next month. (Woodcock Johnson)
I don't know if i should pursue the DYS program or if he would qualify for the Davidson Institute. We are considering relocating to find a school that can meet his needs and offers a challenging & interesting curriculum.
here are the scores I got back yesterday:
VCI - 152 - >99.9 percentile
