I think this may be my last year with my middle schooler who desires to enter into high school next year.

Thanks you sharing.

About half of our six children did high school work for 5 or even 6 years. In some cases this was a result of simply doing the same classes with an older sibling but not graduating early with them. In other cases it was due to a “late” (winter) birthday. In either case, the kids qualified to take more free dual enrollment college classes when they lingered in high school until they were ready to move on. In the regular school system, a second senior year is what occurs when a student moves from high school to a prep school before college.

Listening to our children is so important along the journey and sometimes we have things so planned out it’s hard to hear & see the path ahead. Shifting and moving with them is what it’s all about:-)! Doing what will help them thrive and be successful is so important.
