When DS was in K, he too would not have benefited from a single grade skip. Instead the school opted to give him a schedule that resembled that of middle school. He went to 5th grade for math, 3rd grade for LA, 4th grade for science as in our district that is where science really begins. He participated with the K class for art, music, p.e.,library and computer lab. He had separate work in coputers but he was with the K class.

It looks very messy at first glance, but it worked well for him.
Two years later he is in a middle/high charter school as is doing great. When a child is that far ahead you are forced to look way outside the box.

Just out of curiousity, have you asked your son what he wants?
