Hi everyone,
I am new to posting on these forums but I am really at a loss and I'm hoping someone has some good positive feedback and a child that has skipped multiple grades that might be willing to share their story with my DYS (7). Currently he is seven and in third grade in public school. He entered school a year early so is one grade ahead of his chronological peers already. He is so advanced and such a fast learner, the district gave him the Iowa Acceleration Scale and are recommending we consider accelerating him another full grade so next year, he would be 8 years old entering Fifth grade. (Just fyi our school system has K-3 in one building, 4-6 in another, then 7-8 and then HS). I have mixed feelings for obvious reasons- he is still so young but needs it as he is losing his enthusiasm for learning. I was hoping someone could share a similar aged success story... thank you in advance!!!
