Can I vent too? Dh and I have been discussing options for DS12, who despite a grade skip to 7th grade mid school this past fall, is bored out of his mind. I've been researching subject compacting and plan to bring up the possibility of this and also of subject acceleration to the high school.

This sounded like a grand plan until I spoke with a friend who's HG daughter has read one book this year and has yet to learn one new concept thus far in the freshman honors language arts class.

Aargh!
