Like PPs, I wouldn't rule out future testing based on WJIII cognitive taken at such a young age.
He scored "clinically significant" in the areas of depression, anxiety and aggression on the social/emotional assessments completed by us and his teachers. To me that's a redflag for a school diagnosis for emotional disturbance later on (hearbreaking). I feel that sending him to K at 5.5 is not an option that is healthy for him and there are no gifted and talented schools in my area for elementary level students.
I can understand why you'd be concerned. Are you seeing the same types of behavioral problems at home and at school?
We apparently have gotten a spot with a charter school that supports homeschooling families. Maybe that would be an option for your DS as well? I also read around here that smaller private schools might be more willing to work with parents. I have no idea how my DD did on her tests and we won't find out until after May but regardless of her IQ score, I know a typical K curriculum would not work out for her. She'd rebel and no one would be happy.
