Did you think he was too smart for 2nd? My daughter is reading at an 8th grade level and I would never skip her to 4th because I want her to have time to be a kid, blah...blah...").
Shame on you, anonymous mother of HG child!!!!
Yes, the parents are definately the worst! Sorry you have to deal with that junk.
I'm glad to hear some of these schools are skipping these kids over first. In many ways I think it's the worst year because, yes, it's all about reading. And it should be, many of the kids are not reading fluently at the beginning of first and it's a crucial year for the skills to be firmly obtained.
