Jody, OT I think you're very wise to be considering the school for your 18 month old. My son started kindergarten "late" too. His birthday is in Nov., he was reading on an 11th grade level in grade one, consequently he was moved ahead and into a program designed for "gifted" children (I hate that designation).....It wasn't an altogether positive solution. While he did much better academically, uprooting him from his classmates at the time, caused him a lot of anxiety, so overall I'm not so sure I would have done it again. One of the big things you need to remember is that even if the public school your child is in isn't up to your standards, a very big part of your child's education is what you teach her at home. I dare say she'll probably learn more from you in total than she will from the school system, especially in the elementary grades. There are many things you can do to augment your child's education at home, unfortunately if the school has a bad social environment, you don't have much choice other than taking her elsewhere. :( hope this helps, bp
