Our school basically already told me they don't see a need to test a child who is exceeding grade level. Umm yeah, maybe test them so you know where they are at and can accurately keep them challenged? Can I 'make' them test him? lol
I also really think we'll be going through this with DD too. She is 'sneakily smart' and just doesn't show it lots of times until she just pops out with something surprising.
I do have a baseline for DS but nothing for DD - I was SO hoping when they eval'd her for PT at 3 they would have just done the whole eval like they did with DS but no to my dismay they only eval'd for PT --- she was a 29 weeker and had physical therapy through Early Start until age 3, she didn't qualify to continue receiving from the school district
If you find out what motivates them to test I would love to know! Though I've pretty much decided we are going to have to do it on our own if we want it done so I think I'm waiting until 6 and then figuring out where to go from there -- not the place I talked to that would charge $1000 or more since we just can't afford that!
