Hi Lisa
It has been our observation, that the childs happiness needs to be considered. No hard fast rules, each child is different. Fear of change, being comfortable where they are, etc...
Our DS15 was unhappy with a school move we made last year, he fought it and never really tried to make it work out, we are moving him back to the public school, with some restrictions, but he seems so much more motavated. I am learning that nothing is permamnant and flexability is the rule. As far as her potential, a grade skip may not be enouogh. With our HG+ DS5 we augment at home, and expand where we can. It's a lot of work, but it seems to be working for now.
Welcome, and best of luck.
