Pearland ISD GT

Pearland ISD

"Pearland ISD is redesigning the gifted and talented program to include larger groups of students in one classroom rather than smaller groups in pull-out programs."

It really ticks me off that they do these things with out more advanced warning or notification! Errgghhh school districts!

Also on that note - why do school districts waste so much money on web programs that are not ever partially utilized? Currently, Skyward is a fancy district calendar with my sons profile information on it. It could be much more but either the teachers are either not being trained or not being encourage to use this. I hope that changes as the year goes by. Otherwise its a big waste of money that could be sunk into a bunch of other areas. **steps down off soapbox**
