I don't feel like he is challenged. There is 1 teacher and she mostly attends to the other kids who require more attention. My kid just sits at his desk, gets homework that is just busywork. I don't know if private school it the answer or a move to a different school district.[/quote]

This has been the story for just about every kid that has transferred into my dc's private school. Their child was doing well and well-behaved and either being completely ignored or used as a "buffer" for the children with behavioral issues.  Contrary to what some posters like to portray here, private schools focus on what I would call "normally bright" (vs. profoundly gifted) kids, and it's a great place for those kids.  Just not having to deal with behavioral problems frees up tons of time in the schools day.  [/quote]

Would you mind sharing the name of your private school?[/quote]
