[quote=Anonymous]It kind of depends if you want your child to excel further in what DC seems to be already good at. Fwiw, our child tested at 8 grade level reading and is 2 grades ahead in math, currently a third grader. Teachers tell me DC is smart . We receive differentiation in math and DC has been pulled out for language studies as well. However, these are more thinking groups. They are not working on 6th grade math concepts and are not reading 8th grade literature. We are really not interested in entering college at 14 but if that it your goal and you think that would be the way to your child's happiness than you should proceed differently. I heard great things about the Stanford online high school for gifted kids. Additionally, in first and second grade some of my child's friends turned out to be SN. It didn't slow down my child's learning but I have to say the teachers have been on top of it. Not sure if we will feel the same for middle school years. Good luck![/quote]
