He did the WISC-IV right after he turned 8 in 2nd grade. The problem we have is that while we know he is advanced in the verbal portion, he is not gifted. His FSIQ was 123 at the time with the WISC. He is highly advanced in his math. In 2nd grade he was in the 98th-99th% on the MAP testing for math and 89-94th% for reading. He took the test for JHU CTY and qualified completely for math and science and is currently doing math courses through there. He is going into 4th grade this fall and will be completing pre-algebra and Algebra I. He went through 5th and 6th grade Honors in 7 weeks.
His current school is very supportive of his math abilities and fully accepts his courses. However, he is going to a school out of district at this time. He will be going back into our home district in 2 years for middle school and will require an IEP. The highest math class in the MS's here is geometry which he will most likely be taking in 5th grade.
Basically we need to find out exactly how advanced he is in order to properly map out his education. He will have to attend high school for math classes. We have had to fight our school district multiple times because he doesn't qualify for their gifted program based on his CogAT. He completely bombed it and ended up with 40% lol. Even though the psychologist wrote that the CogAT should be invalidated based on the WISC IV results, they refused to. His principal (in district) said he needs to learn how to be bored in school because school is boring and the school and district refused to advance him or give him challenging work.
