[quote=Anonymous]The parts of OP’s post that seem to assume that kids can move at their preferred academic pace (acceleration from OP perspective probably, right) don’t match generally how schooling works. Generally a class moves as a class and your kid can’t really move much further. There are sometimes little enrichment activities and sometimes different class placements especially in math, in middle school, but generally, your kid’s interest in X will be satisfied only insofar as the teacher(s) do that thing for the class, following the curriculum. I guess the alternative is medieval style individual tutoring or Montessori Max (where does this exist?) or homeschooling.[/quote]
