Our school is K-8, so by skipping 7th grade I am not forcing him out yet ;-)
I do not know what I will do, for now I am not very thrilled with 7/8 grade team. For example, LA teacher main focus is spelling - and DS always gets the words right without much practicing. Also, next year will be Algebra II and then pre-calc. I do not know if I really wan't to go that way. But my son is getting older and he has more and more to say in that respect, so maybe ultimately it is going to be his choice. Anyway, you are right, it is tough.
