[QUOTE="Josie, post: 240727, member: 1792"] I sympathize with her because I hated PE, too. She isn't good at it. Also, she is in the 7th Grade and goes to the 8th Grade for math, when the 7th Grade has PE. So, for her schedule to work, she has to go to PE with the 6th Graders. She says it wouldn't be so bad if she could be with her friends. If we let her go to PE with the 7th Graders, she would have to go down a level in Math. difficult child 1 suggested she do her math independently. While I think she could learn the math on her own, I don't see her really having the discipline to do it. I am not sure I want to even ask about that, but the school is flexible enough they might let her teach herself and take the same tests as the 8th grade. ETA: She could be getting all A's but she got a C in one of her classes last quarter for having missing or late work. So making a case for independent study is not easy. [/QUOTE]
