"I Believe That Your Kid May Not Be Challenged At School"

I have one parent, one very dedicated parent, who has done nothing but educate her child. Since the little tike was about one years old - I remember her asking me about what she should/could/ do to help her child learn.

As I compiled this list of "resources" and "materials" for her child, she began to use them piecemeal each and every week. I slowly noticed that the little man was becoming more and more interested in me and the learning sessions that I was having with his sister. At a very young age, he was able to mimic the behaviors that his sister would make during our sessions and pretend as if he was being tutored as well. I knew that his brain was a sponge and like his two very educated parents, he is a highly motivated and intelligent young man who wanted nothing but to be fed with knowledge.


It has been about one year since the mother has worked with her child and all I can say is "wow". He knows how to read basic sight words and instead of saying the word loud, he uses the word "fortissimo". I can honestly say that this student is young, very young but never too young to be exposed to knowledge and information that he can try to make sense of the world. Even his potty time has turned into a Socratic Method of Inquisition as he asks his mom, "Where does the poopy go?" Honestly, this kid has me so excited every week that I meet with him and is a testament to what a stay-at-home mom can do, when she is focused!

All in all, he is applying to a private school and as a result, the school that he is currently at has stated that "he may not be challenged at School XYZ." Really? Is that all that a school can say?
