That is a rumor and I don't think it is based in fact. There is currently no method for identifying such students anyway. If anything, it would be for next year, not this year. [ Reply | More

Maybe there are people who hope that things could go back to the school controlling its admissions - after all, it WAS working well for a long, long time. I have many friends whose kids are there and I doubt they expect any changes that Donna or anyone else there can make or they would have done it long before now. [ Reply | More

This is UB nonsense. The central DOE is making all admissions decisions for G&T and UB moms are just trying to get you going. I'm sure that Donna and all the other school personnel at G&T schools are just getting ready for registration and doing their jobs. [ Reply | More

Gotcha! That was part of a hoax thread triggered by one asking posters to name their top ten "lightning rod" issues associated with the g&t process, which led to people trying to come up with tongue-and-cheek posts that included all of them, followed by responses that did, etc. The Donna post (which I wrote as a total spoof) was one of those. Only the DOE can choose the dcs at the g&ts this year. [ Reply | More
