I would try first grade if you think it will work. I dont know about schools else where in the country but schools so far in Southern California cant keep up with my oldest and they do a little to say that they are trying then they dont do anything else and it is like pulling teeth. Luckly we were able to homeschool. We use a charter school that provides us with a teacher to go to for help and provide all materials. While there are a few down falls this has helped.
