If a teacher feels a pretest does not overcome the concern for a child to learn the information, would you think there is no way to convince her? I'm thinking I'm done with her she just can't see what I'm talking about.

I'm thinking the only way to make more of a change is to appeal to the principal. I'm going to show her some portfolio. I wonder whether she would know what happens at each grade of learning. Really the math situation is not such a big deal. He doesn't mind the 3rd Grade math page so much.

It's really a matter of balancing his day, using his time well. Giving him a amount of learning with in his day so he can tolerate his day. My big problem is what do I get him out of? How do I prove he can do this and overcome their concerns with out teacher maintance. What subject would he miss/condense or pretest? What do I fight for and how do I prove to school it will be ok?
