Sorry! In my brain I had the sentence including
the words _"in Virginia"_. As you know- there is
incredible variation in education from state to
state in the US. I also see gifted kids being left
behind in the current state of affairs. But I'll
spare everyone the details. I'm curious to know
what the impact has been on rates of
homeschooling/charter schooling/private schooling.

Take Care,
Anne
