Hi everyone ,
DS is gifted in Math (He is a DYS) and is attending the local public school (1st grade). The school promised to put him in 2nd grade math but when it came to actually doing it , told us that they can't do it because of scheduling conflicts (In spite of reminding them more than once this could be an issue and it is something they need to work out when they work on schedules).Now he is getting some differentiation in the class but again it is piece meal. He says he likes school but he does not seem excited about anything he learns except the enrichment class for science he has once a week for an hour. At home , he compensates by doing Khan academy etc.. Question is ...Could a private Montessori school be a better option Vs a public school. The cost involved is huge for us (fees, we also need to move...). I 'am confused and I would like the input of this group of highly engaged and intelligent parents
