I asked about doing that. They wouldn't. They just said, "we don't have above-level testing." I explained. They refused. Apparently, according to them, I'm "blazing the trail" and they want to be very cautious.
On a side note, I did get my hands on IAS forms, and it says some people will use WJ-Ach for aptitude. Can it be used for aptitude AND achievement?
Sigh. I should have had his IQ re-administered. He was barely 4 when he took it, and he was not a very focused test taker. I have no doubt it will come out higher now. He's a bit on the psychomotor overexcitability side, so at 4, it was a lot to ask of him. BUT, they'll give him an IQ test for the gifted program that starts in 2nd grade. All these tests begin to get expensive!
My little guy has some anxiety issues. He's fine with moving ahead. He does not have social anxiety. It's internal, but I don't want to over-test him.
