[quote=Anonymous]This is a hard question with many variables. How large is the school? Is it a parochial kind or one that is considered top tier in your city? Simply being ahead of the class in a subject or two doesn’t make the kid stand out that much. Half the class is over the median, and that doesn’t account for supplemental studies. We have not had great luck with the school accommodating our kids ability above great level (and it was particularly noticeable in math where they were 3-4 years ahead, depending on the kid). But the kids get a lot out of the school in other subjects and socially. The subjects they excel in, we can easily continue to supplement in. For what is is worth, we are at a top academic school. Good luck.[/quote]
