I had mentioned to her teacher at the beginning of the year (conference that the teachers have with every student's parents) that the psych recommended math acceleration. The teacher seemed okay with it and said that she would provide Sunshine math for her, specifically stating she had an advanced math group last year that a parent volunteer would take into the hall and work with. So I figured it would be happening by now.
I also have had an impromptu meeting with the principal and the resource teacher last month (I guess that's what she's called) discussing acceleration. Principal flat out said they don't do acceleration. The meeting was very little help and left me feeling that they didn't really believe me and that I just needed to wait until dd makes it into the gifted class that starts next year.
I'm not familiar with the district's policies are for G&T. My dd's are at a magnet school, do they still have to follow district policy or can they do whatever they want? I have worked in other schools where younger kids come into higher grades to do math. So I know it's a possibility within the district. But our principal said flat out that they don't do it.
