And this is the reason my gd starts homeschooling next year, the grade schools are holding her back and she is bored as can be in the public schools.

I was one of those bored kids in grade school in the late 70's and early 80's. By the time I graduated highschool, several of my teachers knew I felt my public school education had been a waste of time. One of them went so far as to write on a paper I had written to not give up on public schools yet.
I knew then I would not let my kids suffer thru the public schools. Especially if they were anything like me. They are happily homeschooled. In June, they will have completed 2 full grades this year (first time I have done that, usually let them finish one year and call it a rest until the next year).
There is nothing more fulfilling than to sit with my kids and have them go over what they have learned. They have so much excitement about learning, it is the hardest thing to describe unless you experience it.
