Skipping a Grade
I am faced with the decision of letting my 7 year (1st Grade) old skip the 2nd grade. He was going to the 2nd grade for reading and math time, so he could continue to learn at his level. He no longer does that due to schedule changes between the 1st grade and 2nd grade. His teacher still gives him 2nd grade work on and he also helps the other kids. I've read pros and cons on both sides. He would be a year younger than his classmates, which now really isn't that big of a deal but when he hits high school he will be 15 and his friends...
