Welcome bbb, ((big smile))

Some kids need multi grade skips to get what they need. Mild-Moderated ADHD can actually be treated by appropriate academic challenge - not that I'm saying your child does or doesn't actually have ADHD.

It's terrific that the school is allowing him to do EPGY during school. I would look for opportunities for your son to interact socially with boys 1,2, 3 and 4 years older and observe how things go.

Will the school actually test him? It would be interesting to find out his reading level, achievment test scores and IQ scores, it you don't already have them. Request them in writing.

What books have you read so far re: gifted?

What is he like at home?

I'm starting to think that underage 10, many gifted kids shouldn't have to worry about social skills, and just be allowed to drink as deeply as possible of their intellectual development, then, as puberty hits, there is some energy availible for figuring out "other people." ((Sure, you teach politeness, but if I could go back and do it again, I'd leave it at that.))
