She has been reading and spelling words since she was 4. She had her IQ tested last year year in 1st grade at 134 or 35. I never heard of a valedictorian in gifted child system.. The gifted program is only designed to stimulate thinking and deflect boredom. There is no grading or standings in it. They mostly give them puzzels that are tricky to solve. Those get more complex each year. She is cleared for grades 1-12 if she wants to. They do not force them to attend. The program is meant to increase there mental problem solving capacity while at the same time deflecting boredom. When you advance kids ahead of their peer group. They found it will often cause identity problems. that lead to other problems that are not good to carry into life. At least that was the way the PHD that that coducts he program explained it to her parents. MoCarp 1

vernon Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Pretty sure that they called my program “exceptional” but that wasn’t necessarily a good thing..... Depends upon your definition of “exceptional” I guess. "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups." George Carlin "The only money ever wasted is money never spent." Me.

Royal Blue Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 Sorry for taking this thread off the rails...I probably took offense to something that wasn't intended to be offensive.
