I just volunteered myself to be the "gifted go-to" person for a new public school's homeschool program.
At first I was just writing to the coordinator about Z's specific case and asking if she will be able to grade skip in the homeschool "classes" they are going to provide. I ended up linking to some good articles on Hoagies about HG/EG/ PG kids and offering to have them consult with the Davidson group to set up a suitably accommodating program and then offering my own time to work with them on setting up a program.
Hmmm, so what is going to happen if they are interested? *wry grin*
I guess I would really love the opportunity to help. :)
That is what I was trying to do with this blog. Which is why I decided to take it public again.
I have done a lot of research on giftedness and I know I could use it to help more than just my own daughter. I have a lot of ideas of things I could be doing in this area - both in real life and online.

That is neat! I hope it works out for you.
That's great! We don't have anything like that in our area,it seems where you live your schools are pretty homeschool friendly?
I am so glad that you have decided to keep your blog public. We all have gifts and experience to share.
I am glad that you have kept your blog public. I have learned a lot from your blog and it gave me the courage to do testing and ask for acceleration for my daughter. So, you've been a gifted advocate for her already!
