That's a tough decision. Good luck!

My DD is against the idea of a full skip mainly because of her size (she's already frustrated with being the smallest kid in her class) and because she doesn't want to be at a different school than her best friend, who is close enough to her LOG to "get" her. So, we're continuing to pursue subject acceleration, even if much of it ends up taking place at home.
