Don't play with raising star's future
 

I’m a proud parent of Gifted student and I know how effective the current Gifted program is for my child’s future development and should remain as is. The child feel proud when he is recognized by the school, county even state level and it always give him boost to raise his own bar to compete at Country level. Student like these are bright star of our country and any regulation changes to make the Gifted program standards differ from county to county is going to give negative signal to the students and could impact there future growth. We should make the rules to enhance there future not create the road block in there path. They are the new Einstein of our country don’t play with there future.

Thanks for looking into our comment.
