I'd love to hear how others have advocated for more in a program when the lower grades he has are based on writing ability. DS8 is in a full time gifted program and is asking (pleading)for more math and science. He is at a one grade level skip now and the psychologist who tested him indicated that it may not be enough. The writing I see actually does not look that bad and his thoughts are very clear, it just takes him longer than anyone in his class to write.
