Hi!
I though I would introduce myself. I live in MD and have a DD23, DS5, and DD3. I came across this board while looking for information on how to deal with DS5's school. He is in K and I am having a hard time getting anyone to listen to the fact that he might need some enrichment through differentiation in class. He doesn't show what he knows in class so I'm afraid I'm starting to come across as "that parent". We have not had testing done so we do not have an IQ or LOG but currently he seems to be a minimum of two grades ahead academically. My husband and I were discussing, last night, whether it was something that would be useful to have done and whether we wanted done. We both come from parents who believed that it was better not to know your IQ. I just want a happy and challenged child. This balance seems incredibly hard to come by in public school, maybe in any school.
I've already found this forum incredibly informative, thank you!
