I have to say I am envious of both of you. We will not have those kinds of options. I am trying to decide how much energy I have to go and even discuss DD taking an alternative path in our private school. While many of the teachers are kind, they think (and the principal) they know best for all students. How can I even prove to them that DD is capable of so much more? In elementary we had the yearly testing that showed what she could do (which finally allowed single subject acceleration then finally a grade skip and more). No testing at the school this year. Just DD not even lifting a finger to get A's. Her big sister studies like crazy and gets 99's and 100's across the board. That is the child the school really respects.
