[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I'm done with Curriculum 2.0. The home school is great for everything except the lack of challenge and mediocre curriculum. I understand that HGC moves past the 2.0 problems. If DC doesn't get into HGC, we would definitely go private and have already done so with our younger child based on K-1 and what it appears 2nd grade will be under 2.0.

The transition to private would make more sense for high school if HGC and a magnet is an option. If a magnet isn't an option, middle school entry is still easier than 3rd or 4th grade entry. Original plan was to apply for both private and HGC in 3rd for 4th but now I'm leaning toward just going for private. [/quote]

OP - HGC uses 2.0 curriculum.  My DC is in it now.  It's just supposed to be a faster pace and more in depth coverage of a topic, but the curriculum is pretty much the same.[/quote]

That has not been my experience.  In fact, child's current HGC teacher said that the curriculum is not followed.  [/quote]
