Exactly.
I second to eldertree and MON. If I am the administrator, as soon as I have the knowledge that you bring a lawyer, I would postpone the meeting and rechedule so that the lawyer from the school district could be present as well.
People protect their turf. They have't denied anything yet and I would give them the benefit of the doubt. You defintely need to familiarize with the school policy and quote it often. If they do not follow their policy, then it is time to bring in a lawyer.
Talk to your DD's teacher as well. If he/she endorse it, it is easier for grade skipping but most likely the school will want your DD to take the test.
Good luck!
