I am 15 years old and a while back I had to stay in 5th grade because I had been homeschooling my whole life and my mom didn't want me to jump into middle school so quickly. I did VERY well doing that because I had already studied the 5th grade before. I stayed in public school up until 8th grade, where I homeschooled that year. I want to go back to high school now and because I took a few 9th grade classes that 8th grade year I am now able to skip my freshman year and go straight to 10th grade,BUT I am not allowed any "fun' classes such as art, drama, home ec, ect. I have to take 6-7 core classes instead of 4 each day. Right now my schedule looks like this (French, AP human geography, Life Science, 10th grade English) next day (Drivers ED/ health, Earth Science, World History, Geometry). So the question is... Would you skip a grade if it meant not having any "fun" classes, studying your butt off, but graduating a year earlier? (but remember I not really "skipping" I'm going back to my correct grade level)
