Awww incog - I totally agree. That seems really unprofessional and unorganized to pull this after barely getting it started. And your e-mail sounds positive and well written while still conveying the disappointment.

At least your school has a policy in place for a skip, but it's unfortunate that it's such a drawn out process. I think my DS would resist a skip too. He is socially quite happy in his class now.

Let us know how it goes!
