The meeting is over. I hate these meetings!! Always feel like such a pushy mom. Can you believe that I was actually apolegetic
for my kids beeing smart???
Anyway, P is very much against grade skip for D, agreed to put her in 6th grade math and LA. When asked what will happen next year, she said that we will see, she did not have answers. But as you know, we have to play it year by year.
She sees no problem with Ghost taking science classes at local HS.There is a charter HS within two blocks of our school and HS P has kids at our school. P thinks she will be very open to accomodating Ghost. BUT, she also suggested that Ghost might take 9th grade science at our school, which is Earth Sciences. She gave us the book and asked to think about it. To me the book looks also like something he can cover within a period of a few weeks. Also, Earth Sciences is not a prerequisite to any other science courses. Is it important? I think it is.
P also told me that Ghost is still so young and he has got so much time to take these classes in the future. As much as I like P, even though she intimidates me, I hated listening to that. Made me feel like this pushy mom who is driving her child insane. Hate it!!!
Meeting with the P of a charter HS tomorrow. And meeting with the coordinator of an IB program in two weeks.
Have to go now,
Ania
