Thanks sittin pretty - I think that *I* am DS's biggest obstacle - not that I don't think he can easily fit in and do great in 1st grade, but that he's my baby. He IS ONLY 5, etc...

But even if they didn't whole grade accelerate him at this point, we could at least have an idea of where we think he is compared to where the school does, and where his peers are, which in all actuality, we don't know - ya know?

First I am having a conversation with his teacher at some point, so it may not even be something I bring up right away. My ONLY concern is them asking DS if he wants to skip kindergarten in a way in which makes him say no right away without hesitation.
