Back in October Kolbie had to take some testing for the Gifted and Talented program at his school. He got a letter a couple of weeks ago that said he had passed the first round of testing and he was to be tested for 2 more days. Those two days were this week. We started the week off really bad because he has had some congestion in his head lately and it finally set into his left ear. We went to the dr on Monday morning and got some antibiotics and congestion meds. I was a little worried that he would have problems with the testing that was to be given on Wednesday and Thursday because he was having problems hearing out of that ear but he seemed to do okay. Wednesday was the reading comprehension part of the test. He was so excited when I picked him up from school. He said it was easy. Thursday was the math portion. He said it was a little bit harder but he didn't really worry so much about it. I hope he gets in. This is a great program and I think he will do well in it. He likes things that challenge his mind. They had to send the test to Columbia to be scored so now we wait.
Thing is regardless I was really proud of him because he was 1 of only 6 kids in his school that got approved to go on to the second round of testing. Better yet he was the only one in his class to be asked.
