Both my dds have similar VCI scores and their needs in a classroom are completely different.
Where is he academically? What kind of things can he do? Is he showing what he is capable of in the classroom or not?
Maybe one thing you could ask for is some sort of achievement testing. Some schools will do that if somebody requests it. That would give everybody more information and help you out as you decide how to proceed.
The other thing that I would do, before the meeting, is to gather information about the SD gifted program. What kind of programs are offered? How are students selected? Do they have self-contained or pull-outs? What grade does it start? Do they accept outside testing? If there is a person listed in charge, you can contact that coordinator and see what they can suggest or do.
