Hi all!

I really enjoyed being part of this thread last year.

DD7 will start 2nd in a private gifted school. The school prides itself on all kids working at least one academic year ahead (and it does seem to be true when compared to public schools in our area). She is also young for her grade (early summer birthday). But I still feel nervous every fall about whether she will be academically challenged enough.

Last year proved to be a big year of social growth (with some emotional bumps and bruises that went along with it). Who knows what this year will bring!

Hope everyone's year gets off to a successful start!
