I'm not concerned with the name. My concern is the fact that i was under the impression it was a formal program, which would require a trained and licensed gifted teacher to be conducting it. It is not - it's just another teacher that they hired, with no formal training in working with gifted students. She may have a natural talent for it and be just as good as someone who is licensed. But I thought it was deceptive to lead me to believe it was a formal class when, in reality, it's just half an hour with a different teacher. I guess it's just bothering me that I don't feel they were honest, for whatever reason. Why not just let me know this from the beginning? I probably still would have allowed him to be in the program - but I would have felt more informed about it.
