Wow. You did really well. Can I hire you to talk to my son's school?
You made a really good point about the acceleration. Either he is not that far ahead and they can accommodate him or it's too much for them and then grade skip is the right choice. Great job on that one.
I say try Alex at home and see if he likes it. I like the idea of Singapore books since it's something you can check at home, but also something you can take with you to the next meeting.
The most irritating thing is that the gifted teacher, though she's been present for two meetings, still has not even MET ds! The gifted teacher, we're told, does not work with Kers, and there are no gifted services for Kers, regardless of ability.
Because, apparently, they start to *really* be gifted in first grade or something.
Oh yeah. No gifted kids till the 1st grade and then they will all even out by the 3rd
You would have thought that after the 1st meeting she would at least check on him.
