It was a frustrating year, even with a teacher who really did quite a bit to accommodate him-- for instance, moving him up to a 2nd grade reading group (which wasn't high enough, but no one wanted him in a 4th grade reading group as a tiny kindergartener). We did keep doing enrichment for him after school, but since it was all-day K (no choice, and I didn't know better anyway), there wasn't a tremendous amount of time. Anyway, just be aware that they might not be able to satisfy him and you might need to do something for him at home.

Thanks for this. Anticipation is a wicked thing. I remind myself that any decision we have thus far made can be unmade at any point.
