After all the testing, in the end the board did not approve the skip, with concerns for the 'future well being of child'...
So next year he will be a high 1st grader who needs to be challenged and for math he will go to 2nd grade.
How frustrating. Hopefully they will change their minds again soon.
It is great that he will be going to math for 2nd grade. Hopefully there will be kids reading on his level in 1st - of they will send him up after a month or two.
It sounds like the writing practice you are doing is great.
Keep reminding of his social need to be with kids who can play his games and enjoy his humor....they'll get it eventually.
Love and more love,
Grinity
