Thanks for your help. I appreciate the feedback. I did talk to the tester about the results and if there are any areas of concern. She said the GAI at 97% is just below the gifted class cut-off and she would personally accept that for a gifted class. She did suggest we call the school board and see if he would be allowed into the gifted class for middle school (in a year). My son is bored and doesn't enjoy school now, feels it's too slow and he ends up being the "helper" a lot in class, explaining things to other kids and working with slow learners to help them grasp material he got the first time. Any suggestions on how to approach it with the board? I know I have to advocate for him but I'm a stutterer and will end up talking in circles if I'm nervous. There is a special ed rep that I have to speak to about this. There is no email option listed on the board's website.
