[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is it possible to change schools? Clearly she's not getting fulfillment at the school for some reason and if she's getting straight A's and telling you she's bored, she likely needs a more challenging environment.[/quote]

OP here. Not really. We could move her to a different public in our district but I don't think it would help with the boredom since the curriculum is basically the same. The only private we could afford is the local parochial Catholic but its small and those kids have been together since K and she would be entering in 7th grade. She's slow to make friends and very sensitive so I feel that could end up a social disaster.

There is an enrichment class during study hall but its for "gifted" students only. We are reapplying for her this year, but she wasn't selected in elementary so I'm not optimistic. She will start taking foreign language next year and a harder math class so maybe that will help? I just don't see how any of us can deal with this for 6 more years!![/quote]
