Hi Suzie
Flexability may be the key, see if they will allow him to test out of 4th and move to 5th. Also look at EPGY online, or another online alternative. It has taken some time to find a fit for our DS8, and we may still not be thier.We had to advocate past the schools to the district and then to the district superintendent. He is grade skipped to 4th and attends the MS for 6th grade math. This took some time and effort on our part. We have had to advocate each year, and make adjustments. To keep math interesting we supplament with the Math Olmypiad, which I now run 1 day a week after school. The problems are dificult, yet fun.
In regards to the math in 6th, its not much more then 5th but he now has some students that will do better then he does, or so we hope.
