My husband and I both work so homeschooling is not an option right now. I don't know that DD really cares other than she is not particularly happy now. The tuition at the private school is surprisingly reasonable and we could still do some enrichment. However, for right now there are not a lot of camps etc.. in our area and DD is not quite old enough to go to camp herself so it is mostly family stuff. It seems like now most of what we are doing with her could be classified as after schooling and keeping her engaged at home. I know ideally she would be at her instructional level but emotionally she would not be ready for anywhere near 5th grade anyway. It seems as though the private school is the lesser of the two evils and they do seem to try to include younger children in things and make school more fun.
