That's a great question. I have been wondering if it's a reasonable request myself. I wonder what they would do if he passed the 2nd grade test but not the 1st. Surely he would be allowed to skip 1st as a result.

2nd grade is a heavy writing year for math so I wouldn't want him to actually skip it. He writes on grade level more or less and could use the writing work. This is part of the reason I'm hoping he will skip 1st grade math this year and not wait and skip second grade math next year.
