If they plan to differentiate maybe you can send homework to school with him, like a Singapore math book or something so you can help the teacher out with appropriate differentiation. I just say Singapore because I don't know many choices. But if he already knows what they're working on that week then the teacher can just pull his Singapore book and already know what HE needs to work on next. I think a teacher just likes consistent and comprehensive.
It's a shame you feel a little guilty for making decisions on how to raise your own kid, but it just shows you're trying to do things right and it's hard sometimes. ((not a hugger-have some chocolate))
((ah, c'mere and gimme a virtual hug))
