I agree with Chris1234. We were in a school that NEVER skipped a child in the entire history of the school. We went in well prepared and stated our case and guess what.... they agreed! It went so beautifully and flawlessly, I bet they wouldn't second guess trying it again if the need presented itself. Now, don't get me wrong... this certainly wasn't a solve all. We are still not being challenged, but I look it at as a stepping stone and one step closer to where we need to go. DC is so much more happy in the new grade though!

Don't give up!
