This just in from the asst. superintendent: despite that my daughter is 4 grade levels ahead in reading and 2 in math, he won't agree to accelerate her even one grade level in either subject because it's "against district policy." Huh?! I'm so frustrated-- the principal last year assured me she'd do subject accelerations, but then she [ETA: the principal] was sent to a different school. As I said elsewhere, I'm still trying to avoid a total grade acceleration, but absolutely want her to be educated appropriately using pull-outs.

I'm in NY. No IEPs for gifted here, right? What can I do to fight this?
