Trying to remember
I know I was in the GATE program in 3rd grade before I ended up being transferred to a “highly gifted magnet” for 4th and 5th grade.
I have so few memories of GATE, though my memories of 3rd grade are otherwise relatively clear.
Someone on this sub posted a picture of a red blazer/skirt combo and it brought back a memory of the woman who did the first test with me. She had dark curly hair, vaguely resembled Elaine from Seinfeld, and the blazer/skirt suit combo brought her back into my memory. I think she was a school psychologist.
I remember going into another classroom that was very dark. I remember going back to class. I don’t remember anything in between except once we made ice cream in this cylinder by rolling it across the room.
I don’t remember who else was in GATE with me.
Trying to recall these memories makes me feel crazy.
