One bit of wisdom that seems to come out of pre-K discussions here is that no academics is better than wrong academics.

The learn-to-read year is really the hard year for kids who are way ahead. For us, as for Cricket2, that's also 1st grade, and it was when we hit the wall with DS8. It was very phonics-based, very sloooooow. But for some places apparently that happens in the K year. If your DD is reading, then that learn-to-read year, whichever it is, is the one I'd skip.
