Thank you for that well-thought out response. The school psych did not provide a GAI.
He is happy in school because this year he had a teacher that gave him above grade level work and he completed it pretty independently (she showed him how to access the material on line, but other than that he was on his own). His writing is pretty advanced for his grade as well.
The school did not want to whole grade accelerate bc it is not a common practice, but they assured us that they could meet his academic needs. He has already completed next year's math and will need something different.
Our son is at his best in the throes of learning and is at his worst when he feels an iota of boredom or lack of structure. We are just trying to figure out how to access more for him in a cost effective way.
He is currently doing an ID Tech camp and LOVING it.
And yes, he is on a 504 for the processing.
Thanks for the response!
