Hi and welcome.
The best advice I can give you is that which was given to me when my son began school. We were told by our school administrator that we may want to consider home-school for at least the first several years. In hind-sight, I know that would have been a better option. Although not every teacher viewed ds negatively, the pace of instruction and the focus on non-academic �color in the lines� compliance plus lack of peers made his early education rather unpleasant overall.
I was not overly confident with my mentoring abilities as most of his questions revolved around the study of astrophysics since he was 4. I have come to realize that I am at least as qualified to teach him math and science as many earlier grade teachers. We also would have had plenty of time to find the answers he wanted.
I also think that often new opportunities build upon previous ones and you simply have to make a decision and start it.
