I got blocked by the principal. You can have the teacher on your side, the guidance counselor, and the math coach in the school but the principal is deadlocked against any acceleration, even though she has both gifted classes and gen ed. She wants them taught the same. Luckily the teacher is excellent and her approach is gifted and she clustered. At grade 1, their curricululm is pretty good with chess and Spanish but Dd has to do her CTY math at home. Another school nearby encourages the parents to join CTY and the kids can log on during class time. Just a difference in principals. Though I like DD's curriculum at her current school.
