I feel for you. I completely suck in advocating. I couldn't even make a Montessori school do what I wanted even though they themselves told me that DS (5 at that time) was an exceptionally smart student. Math was ok, but I couldn't get anywhere with LA (different teacher). You know like have DS study more difficult spelling words than just cat, hat, and lake. Never mind that he could spell at the 4th grade level at that time.
We are homeschooling. It's much easier and less stressful than my unsuccessful attempts to advocate.
