Ellen, I feel your pain... I have an almost 4 year old son. I have been trying to get some help from the local elementary school to try and challenge him before he goes to school. He was born in Dec. so he won't be in first grade until he is almost 7 so I have 3 more years. When I try to speak to the "experts" they have told me they can't test him (okay but I just want some advise and direction.). They act as if I'm bragging but I have made it very clear that I am asking for help!!!! He just started pre-school and I told them he can read. So I pick him up on Thursday and they ask me "Did you know he can read whole books?' Well YES. I feel if my son could throw a football 20' everyone would be impressed, but because he's just incredibly smart I'm showing him off.
I would see if they have any programs at the local colleges. William & Mary has a program here that I have enrolled my son in. Good Luck!
