[QUOTE="Lammie, post: 622744, member: 3306"] There is a program in Texas called AVID, (Advencement through individual determination) in which at risk students, students who test well but for whatever reason, don't make the grades, get tutoring and placement in AP classes. It has an overwhelming success rate where it has been used in other schools. I am looking forward to seeing what happens here. Eighty percent of the kids in Venus Primary are on free or reduced lunches. We are an impoverished district. It has to effect learning. I am so glad my kids are what I would term ''average''. I am not going to say they are gifted, although everyone thinks they have gifted kids. That's what parents do! But having worked with people with learning disabilities, there are just so many things that can go wrong, I am greatful for what I have. Be greatful for your kids whatever their abilities. It can always be worse. [/QUOTE]
