    Thanks all! Gabalyn, yes perhaps we will see each other! smile

    I kind of didn't expect DS to get accepted... Are they good with helping out with 2e issues?

    I'd love to for his younger brother to get in - he does not have high enough IQ (138) ... perhaps I'll get his achievement testing done and see if that gets a qualifying score.

    Irena, I am hoping they can be helpful with 2e stuff. That is the main reason I wanted to pursue this for him. Hopefully, we won't need help, but it is nice to have just in case. I believe they can advocate with schools for things like allowing a 2e student to demonstrate comprehension with fewer problems, for example.

    Congratulations Irena, Gabalyn! That's exciting news!
    My DS10 was also accepted last week which was a relief - as younger sibling was one already and this acceptance has boosted his self confidence immensely.
