[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, what you do if you want to stay in DC public is deliberately accelerate your child yourself over the years. Hire a tutor, have them work out of Singapore Math and Saxon math workbooks, put the kid on Khan Academy videos, send them to Johns Hopkins CTY camps etc. Document their progress and bring the evidence to the school's math coordinator a couple times a year. If teachers get fed up with the kid burning through math assignments fast and causing mischief while s/he waits for others to catch up, believe me, the school starts to deliver the math challenge, at least as long as the school is mostly high SES kids. The kid may be sent to the library to work on math software. Don't give up or give in and the differentiation starts to kick in as long as the kid really can work far ahead of grade level. That's been our experience.[/quote] +1. You can also move to Ffx for AAP. [/quote]
