[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No schools should be allowing any children to skip grades just because an entitled parent thinks they have the right to demand it. Schools need to stop caving in to these insane requests. They would never even entertain this at a school in wards 7 or 8. Your skin color doesn’t make you anymore deserving of having a demand approved than a black parent who might be economically disadvantaged. [/quote] Our DCPS actually twice pushed us to skip our kid and we said no. They warned us that they wouldn’t be able to entirely accommodate kid as a result, but we thought a socially happy kid was more important and not worth risking. This is just to point out that it’s not always pushy parents.[/quote] We had a similar experience. School suggested it, child said no.[/quote]
