Our district does not accept outside testing. However, we do have him scheduled for a WISC V next week to get some clarity on where he actually stands.
We are also wondering if a grade skip would be an option. It is not something we ever considered, but just seeing how his love for school has come down so drastically, we are trying to see what can be done to keep him motivated. At home, he is a self-directed learner and is constantly challenging himself with new things.
What makes me most concerned is that he gets that he is different from his classmates and is constantly mentioning that he wishes he wasn't so smart and that he could also be as excited as them when they learn new things at school.
Sorry for rambling!
