Unfortunately, GT parents just go to private schools or pay for outside enrichment. They don't sue to get their rights like the special ed parents did. GT doesn't bankrupt families, special ed did. Those parents just don't scream loud enoughSuzanne G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06863323950020960209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10378966.post-20850223024926198612007-08-28T15:57:00.000-04:002007-08-28T15:57:00.000-04:00I'm really interested to hear that from you.

Even if we are trying to challenge our GT kids under NCLB, teaching to the test isn't going to give them the enrichment they need.<BR/><BR/>I think another set of kids NCLB leaves out are the non-sub category kids. I find it kind of ridiculous that one of our school's largest populations only gets counted once since they are not a 'big five' population across the state. If we were really score-oriented we could practically ignore this one large population and aim our teaching to the other populations whose scores count twice. I'd love to get the NAACP looking into the racial profilings of NCLB.organized chaoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18050635225751382130noreply@blogger.com
