The teachers at K level tend to be quite good at differentiating I think because they do get kids at all stages.

Thanks for your perspective. That's what we're thinking as well now. AT the moment, DS's current preK teacher wants to see how far he can go, so she'll do her best at adding in extras for him (though I'm in the class enough to know the limitations).
