Unfortunately, the school doesn't offer subject acceleration, since all of the grades take math at different times. I wish they would pull DS for special projects, but they won't start doing anything at all like that until 2nd grade. They occasionally supplement his in-class work with more advanced worksheets, but those are still few and far between.

Some of the problems might disappear by 3rd grade, since DS would be eligible for the school's gifted program. But, I hate the idea of him sitting around and learning nothing for another 1.5 years. Also, since the gifted program is really a bright, compliant, high-achiever program, I'm not convinced that it will solve any problems.

Navigating the school stuff would have been so much easier if DS were a little less gifted in math, a little more gifted in language arts, and a bit more mature. At least then the grade skip would have been more ideal.
