Popped in to see how you were doing. It is an ongoing saga, is it not? I think it's ridiculous that you haven't heard from the gifted coordinator. Maybe you could email the gift c and principal both and see what response you get?
After our awful meeting this week, I got an email from ds' teacher today and seems the most open and cooperative so far. Like she is either completely blowing sunshine OR maybe she is starting to believe that I'm not delusional. She is working to get ds level appropriate for homework, but I'm hoping that we can transition this to in-school work.
Keep us updated!
