Hello st pauli girl, you are correct... we do not want to do a skip. I suppose that could change in the future, but I am guessing that it won't. Having him in with the older kids is kind of like a skip for one hour a day, though.

The other thing I'm concerned about is if anyone asks him next year why he is not in GATE with the rest of the 3rd graders... if he says it's because he's HG.... that will not help him make him friends, you know what I mean?
