[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is FCPS? Your child must really be special, it's very rare they suggest skipping these days. That would make me take it more seriously. I'd question whether I wanted the skipping recommendation to be from a virtual evaluation. Presumably the teacher recommending has not met him in person and does not know his ability to socialize with his peers. From a purely academic point, my 6 year old is also 3 years ahead in math and 2 in reading, but he still cries in frustration when he encounters a challenge--he'd get swallowed alive among older kids. I second the suggestion to see if your child can just join the grade or two up for math, but stay with his peers for most of the day. Once AAP starts in 3rd grade, he will have likeminded peers.[/quote] We were in FX county. Teacher recommended skipping. Admin discouraged us. We went with admin recommendations. Big regret!![/quote]
