I DO like DS's social fit, since all of his best friends in his class are more than a year older than him. Unlike with my DD, we don't want to grade skip him, just subject accelerate him in math. It's the simplest accommodation we've asked for for either of our kids, so you'd think it wouldn't be such a big deal!

I think I will ask DS's teacher when I go in to help on Thursday (if I don't hear from her before that) if he can just take the MAP test on his own without the other 2nd graders. I had forgotten this was an option even though this is just what my DD did a couple of years ago -- so thank you st pauli girl for reminding me we have that option!


She thought she could, so she did.
