[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honest question: why don’t some of the parents of the gifted/advanced kids look into skipping a grade if school is so boring for them? That’s what the truly advanced kids did when I was in school...[/quote]My kid is a September birthday and thus very young for her grade. Skipping her a grade would put a 7 yo in with 9 yos. That seems like a bad idea socially--she's smart, not mature. The challenge is that the math being taught this year is remedial at best. So slow. So basic. So boring. No critical thinking required whatsoever. At least 2/3 of the class is bored out of their minds. [/quote]
