delbows,

Would you be comfortable sharing what transpired with the school district after you had the appropriate testing? My daughter is currently in kindergarten and has tested in the 99th%. She also is mentally checking out. She seems to spend most of her time mentally creating elaborate stories which she shares with me when she gets home. Her teacher says she might not send her to the gifted classes because she sees no evidence that she is gifted. The school already has her test results and recommendations that she attend all gifted programming the school has to offer. I'm spinning my wheels trying to figure out what to do next. It is a very political environment at her elementary school and I do volunteer and know what's going on with which teachers. The principal patently refuses to accelerate. If you have had some success, I would love to hear what is working for you.

Thanks,
Incog
