Sounds like a great option! Celebrate those successes as they come!

You may also want to read up on the mandates of your state. It took me a year and a half to realize that my district was actually pointing me in the wrong direction, telling me out right lies and passing along information they thought was correct because they didn't know the actual policies themselves. My mandated state has over 25 different policy letters, bulletins and handbooks concerning gifted education so I can't really blame them for not knowing them. Once I read through the sometimes 96 pages of lawyer speak though, I found that the district does in fact support what I'm asking for. It's just that no one ever pushed for it before.

So with the help of suggestions from people on this forum, I'm the one pushing for something that will change the way gifted education is handled in my district!

Keep moving forward!!
