The kids brought home the school handbook today. For the first time EVER there are two sentences - yes two whole sentences that state "Acceleration of a student shall be permitted only when it can be demonstrated that the student has already mastered a preponderance of the grade-level indicators scheduled to be learned in the grade being skipped. Acceleration shall be carried out only when intellectual, emotional, and social benefits to the student can be expected."

Verrrrrrrrrrrrrrry interesting.....
