I am not usually a shy and retiring type, but going against the school does make me nervous. This is why my husband and our testing psych. are coming along as well. I like the idea of the never ending "why's" until they tell me the reason a family gets to pick just one subject acceleration. We are going to really have to show what she is capable of which is one reason that I originally asked about the Lexile scores. I think that my plan is, that if she can do SSA for only math then I will ask if she can go to the 5th grade classroom and take her English class.
