Hi Splah,

Sorry to hear about you and your son's frustration.

1. If you are in the DFW area, Dr. Beth Lusby is highly recommended and she is on the Hoagies' list of psychologists.

2. If you are in Texas, check out these two links:

This one is about "credit by examination."

This one is the gifted students' right to "appropriate" education. Granted, it depends on each school district's interpretation.

Hope this helps....

PS: For us, having DD6's IQ and achievement score helped with "appropriate" education discussion. Even though the school team seemed sincere in helping, we are waiting for the district to tell us what is "approved."
