It’s unhappy to listen to of the frustrations of oldsters making an attempt to get their college students adequately superior training (“SPS’s highly capable plan frustrates some parents,” April 23, Native Information). We moved to Seattle 27 years in the past as a result of we heard in regards to the sturdy gifted program (from the proprietor of the Secret Backyard Bookshop; thanks!). This system met the wants of our older son – starting with courses two grades forward, and progressing to an undergraduate math program throughout highschool; he began graduate programs freshman yr in faculty and now teaches at Harvard. But it surely appears like since then, the SPS “No Baby Left Behind” coverage has morphed into “No Baby Allowed Forward.”
