[quote=Anonymous]Talk to the school. Arlington doesnt have the same kinds of programs as Fairfax, but they are accustomed to getting kindergarteners at all levels. They should be able to work with kids at all levels. There will be other readers and kids with math skills. I'm also not sure what kind of "superior" private school there would be around here. I was "that kid" when I was I kindergarten, and in my case the school wanted to skip me. I thank my parents for saying no and keeping me at grade level. There's a lot more to long term education than whether they go into kindergarten reading. Just follow your kid's lead and monitor but don't hover over what's going on. If she reads well, let her read a lot of her own choosing when she's at home. Let her do enhancement projects at home based on her interests.[/quote]
