I was very insistent that that it be documented. Period. I really didn't care how, so long as I had in my hands and "on the record" that yes, DS did complete "Xth" grade with passing performance. I've heard too many horror stories of accelerated kids repeating a grade or subject for insane reasons to be comfortable with a more laid back approach.
thank you for this tip. What would documented mean? Would it just be a note on letterhead signed by the prinipal or teacher stated he completed X grade work and each quarter grades? And then it becomes a part of his perminent file and I keep for records.
