Dude-we haven't even GOTTEN to a place where we can talk acceleration. They won't do an acheivment test, we'll get that from the private psych...they are still totally focused on HER behavior, and even though we HAVE another 3rd grade class, they won't even CONSIDER moving her...I feel like they continue to "blame" me, that I somehow am undermining the teacher...I mean, THEY gave her the test that says she is DIFFERENT, and not just a little, but rather a lot, yet they continue to treat her exactly the same as the others...they even BRAG about how "every kid benefits" from GATE cirriculum. That just shows how lacking their GATE is, imo...

We have alot of options too, so I want to take some time...
Again, I just have to find out the proper procedure to pull her out but not enroll her in another school right away...

and I think we will ALL benefit from the suspension, which DD also doesn't think is such a punishment. I think she's rather looking forward to it...


I get excited when the library lets me know my books are ready for pickup...
