 How does Ohio determine if a student qualifies for gifted education? While the state sets the rules for identifying strengths in academics, cognitive ability, and the arts, local school districts handle testing and services differently. Understanding score timelines, screening rules, and district policies can help families better advocate for their child's educational opportunities.

In this episode, we dive into the history of GATE/TAG/G&T — from IQ tests, eugenics, and Cold War competition to today's debates over equity and identification. But beyond the official story, we explore the conspiracies and strange experiences many former GATE students report:• Mysterious tests and guided meditations• Zener cards and ESP experiments• “Pink drinks,” ringing ears, and memory gaps• Suit-wearing “observers” who never spoke• Odd field trips, covered windows, and secrecy• Shared dreams, déjà vu, and paranormal encounters We also look at common traits GATE kids claim to share, and the wild theories about government recruitment, social engineering, and psychic testing. Follow me down the rabbit hole as we explore the shadowy side of the Gifted & Talented program. #GATEProgram #GiftedAndTalented #ConspiracyTheories #EducationSystem #MKUltra #Stargate #IndigoChildren #Podcast #TheRabbitHole Request an episode: https://forms.gle/EkbzBxGgrDvQrJSM8 www.stayskeptical.com Watch: https://rumble.com/user/rabbitholepodcast https://www.youtube.com/@Rabbit.holepodcast Wise Wolf Gold: https://www.wolfpack.gold/?ref=jvujkwgs Sources: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1jcwvgWpPz8GqLxNwpeJM7AHqBJL2O3JWVdE8ggKK7_8/edit?usp=sharing Learn more about your ad choices.

I know you will all be just as excited as I am to have back on the show for a second time: Top tier MONARCH operator and whistleblower, military veteran, Founder of ‘Organize Safety', podcast host and content creator, anti-child abuse advocate, someone who has had a massive and positive impact on my own life and on this project, and the first male mind slave survivor (now of many!) to step up to be featured on my podcast, Grey!Grey was born into a multi-generational occult bloodline family and from a very young age, was groomed and programmed by his family, family acquaintances, and eventually the government and military to become a top tier skilled assassin and operator through MONARCH and other mind control experimentation projects funded by the CIA. After a traumatic event occurred when he was 8, his family relocated to Tennessee where his abuse continued unbeknownst to him and It wouldn't be until Grey was 25 that the two paths of the double life he was living would violently and suddenly collide, revealing every repressed memory from a tortured, painful, and horrific past. As his programming shattered, so did his life. Grey found himself facing time in prison after staged imprisonment charges were dropped on him, and at the same time, his family and loved ones were attacked and tortured as collateral damage to his awakening and first attempt at blowing the whistle on what his memories revealed. And now, ten years later, Grey is back and speaking out for the second time. You don't have to watch Grey's first episode on ‘The Imagination' before listening to this episode, but I highly recommend listening to his incredible testimony he did on his first appearance on this podcast, and also would recommend an even deeper dive he has curated for all of us on his new podcast, ‘The Grey Area' that you can find on YouTube and Rumble along with other platforms that I'll link in the shownotes. This time around, Grey is going to take us down a rabbit hole of epic proportions on a subject that has been a hot button topic and a consistency in many survivor stories: The Gifted and Talented Education program - also known as the GATE program, and its affiliations with the government, MK ULTRA, and other sub-programs. A participant in the GATE program himself, Grey, has done extensive research on this topic and was the first person who came to mind to present on these mind control recruitment sub-programs when this topic first started being requested to present on this podcast.  Before I finish introducing this week's guest, I wanted to give a reminder that if you are a survivor or whistleblower who wants to share your story on the podcast or wants to share any information privately with me, you can now email me at IMAGINEABETTERWORLD2020@GMAIL.COM!

Mee Xiong shares her experience growing up as an intelligent Hmong woman and what challenges and barriers she had to overcome in order to achieve goals she didn't even know existed. About Mee: "Mee is a first generation American born Hmong from Milwaukee, WI. Her parents were one of the many Hmong who became an U.S. ally and engaged in “The Secret War”—a C.I.A. operation during the Vietnam War era. After the fall of Saigon, her parents fled from their home in Laos to Thailand and quickly found themselves as refugees. As a gifted child, Mee had difficulty relating with her peers and fitting in with Hmong cultural values, beliefs, and practices. She was constantly butting heads with her parents and was bullied by her peers. She always knew something was different about her, and thought that something was wrong with her."

A few weeks ago, I visited an innovative Open-Concept school, Minett Elementary, to speak to the parents of the gifted and talented program.  I left in amazement at the innovation of the school, the future of education, and a few lessons you can apply to your day.

In the United States, 6.6% of public-school students are enrolled in gifted and talented programs, but enrollment is not evenly distributed. For example, 12.6% of Asian students are enrolled, but only 4.5% of Hispanic students and 3.6% of Black students are. Scott Peters, my guest for this episode, has been studying and writing about these and other discrepancies for some time. Scott is a Senior Research Scientist at NWEA, where he specializes in educational assessment and data use. A series of articles he wrote about equity within gifted and talented programs is receiving a lot of attention, and I am grateful that he agreed to share his insights in this podcast. More information about Scott and his research can be found at www.TalkingAboutKids.com.

I'm honored to bring you this special part two with dyslexic writer, award winning author, entrepreneur and activist Jonathan Mooney, this time interviewed by my neurodivergent college freshman son, Ryan Neale. If you haven't yet listened to part one for a full exploration of Jonathan's E.P.I.C. life journey, I encourage you to go to that episode next. This episode, inspired by part one, was Ryan's opportunity, just before he left for college, to ask Jonathan for wisdom and guidance about how to flourish at a university while being neurodivergent. What unfolded was that and so much more. In this episode, I passed the microphone completely to Ryan, sat back and listened to him and Jonathan uncover how we can all learn and live outside the lines and stop faking normal. I invite you to listen to this conversation with the same sense of curiosity and trust. I hope you will arrive at the end as Ryan, Jonathan and I all did, personally transformed by the experience.     About Jonathan Mooney: Jonathan Mooney is a dyslexic writer and activist who did not learn to read until he was 12 years old. He is a graduate of Brown University and holds an honors degree in English Literature. At Brown, he became the co-founder of Project Eye-To-Eye, a widely duplicated mentoring program for disabled students. He is also a winner of the prestigious Truman Scholarship for graduate studies in creative writing and education and was a national finalist for the Rhodes scholarship. Jonathan Mooney's work has been featured in The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, USA Today, HBO, NPR, ABC News, New York Magazine, The Washington Post, and The Boston Globe. A nationally recognized advocate for neurological and physical diversity, he's been speaking across the nation about neurological and physical diversity for two decades, inspiring those who live with differences and calling for change. He has published three books: The Short Bus, Learning Outside the Lines, and Normal Sucks.   Connect with Jonathan: Website | www.jonathanmooney.com  Facebook | www.facebook.com/TheJonathanMooney  Twitter | @_jonathanmooney  Instagram | @thejonathanmooney  LinkedIn | www.linkedin.com/jonathan-mooney  Jonathan's Books Mentioned in this Episode: Normal Sucks: How to Live, Learn, and Thrive Outside the Lines : www.amazon.com/normalsucks Learning outside the Lines: www.amazon.com/Learning_Outside_the_Lines     About Ryan Neale: Ryan Neale is a neurodivergent UCLA Freshman from San Mateo, California. His parents discovered he was differently wired when he was 18 months old but he has been in mainstream education for his academic career, with most people around him not knowing about some of the struggles that he faces. His experiences masking his neuro differences have given him a unique perspective on many of the struggles neurodiverse people face, such as public stigma, internalized ableism, and the ever-present desire to fit in. As he has begun advocating more for his needs, he has high hopes to use his perspective and communication skills to increase public understanding of neurodiversity, and hopefully create a more inclusive society for everyone. In his free time, he enjoys playing basketball, coaching youth sports, roughhousing with his little brother, and diving headfirst into his many fantasy special interests. He is thrilled to have participated in the 2022 Stanford Neurodiversity Summit on a K-12 student panel. You can listen to the panel here.

Gifted and talented education, often known as GATE, is shrinking in San Diego. Some schools are dropping the programs by choice, but other schools say they don't have enough students who qualify. Kristen Taketa covers public education at the San Diego Union-Tribune.

In this week's episode, Liz discusses the gifted and talented programs that are common in school systems throughout many regions today, with an emphasis on the negative effects that they have on gifted children who are also autistic. This one's pretty emotional. Sources:https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED535140.pdfhttps://shannonlitt.medium.com/the-toxic-consequences-of-gifted-programs-5367b2401b7dhttps://study.com/academy/lesson/what-is-gifted-education-history-models-issues.html#:~:text=Gifted%20education%20is%20a%20type,opening%20in%20Massachusetts%20in%201901.https://www.understood.org/en/articles/gifted-childrens-challenges-with-learning-and-thinking-differenceshttps://www.davidsongifted.org/gifted-blog/burnout-in-gifted-children/#:~:text=What%20is%20Gifted%20Kid%20Burnout,or%20few%20to%20no%20breaks.https://autisticempath.com/speaking-as-a-former-gifted-kid/https://medium.com/age-of-awareness/why-gifted-kid-burnout-is-a-thing-c55432bb33c1https://www.hikiapp.com/hiki-blog/2021/4/13/a-former-gifted-kids-reflections-on-burnouthttps://psychcentral.com/autism/autistic-and-gifted-supporting-the-twice-exceptional-child#define-giftednesshttps://www.readandspell.com/us/signs-of-a-gifted-child#:~:text=Giftedness%20is%20often%20defined%20as,abilities%20relative%20to%20their%20peers.https://www.scarymommy.com/parenting/gifted-kid-burnouthttps://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2017/03/autism-and-addiction/518289/https://www.usnews.com/news/health-news/articles/2021-10-25/people-with-autism-at-higher-risk-for-suicide-self-harm-study

She also provides ADHD assessments through ADHD Online and therapy services through Spring Health.

Here are some questions we discuss in this episode with our guest Marcy Voss. Why are multilingual learners so often overlooked and underrepresented in gifted and talented programs in schools? How can educators better identify the many gifted English learners, and adopt an asset-based approach moving forward? What are some strategies teachers can use to support language needs without compromising the depth and complexity of the content and instruction? We discuss these questions and more with Marcy Voss. Marcy is an Educational Consultant who has recently retired after 36 years in public education. During her career, Marcy taught elementary and middle school students, as well as coordinated Gifted and Special Programs in several districts. As Special Programs Coordinator for Boerne ISD, Marcy helped develop and implement their Two-Way Dual Language Program. Marcy currently serves as an ELL Coach, curriculum writer, and staff development trainer. Her passion is helping ELL students to think at higher levels through the use of differentiated curriculum that incorporates depth and complexity. She is also interested in identifying and serving gifted ELL students. Marcy is the author of the Academic Language Cards which provide activities using sentence stems requiring higher level thinking. Find the full episode transcript here.
