[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Public school won’t allow it. They don’t want to pay to educate a kid more years than they have to. That’s expensive. They’ll ask for transcripts, see that you’ve already finished 8th grade, and enroll him in 9th. The only way you may get around it is if he fails all of the 8th grade core classes. I’ve had kids move into my class mid year when delayed transcripts came through from the old school and they realize the kid already finished the prior grade.

Private schools will happily do this. You’re paying, they won’t care.

But the bigger issue is resolving the adhd struggles. Is he medicated? Working with a tutor or therapist to learn coping skills and strategies?[/quote]

They may not ask for anything at all.  Our school didn’t when we enrolled.  We just filled in what grade we wanted to enroll in and that was that.  If it isn’t high school, they may not ask for anything at all.  It’s not like you need to prove credit hours.  Kids enroll in public schools k-8 all the time all throughout the year with zero transcripts. [/quote]
