    @ChiSchoolDad Our child is in the RGC program as a kindergartener at McPherson this year (2023-24). The school opted into the Skyline curriculum for kindergarten, and for what it’s worth, we heard that the class did not finish all the kindergarten units in either math or literacy. We’re not sure what that means as they enter 1st grade, but hopefully, the teacher will be aware of where our kids stand. At this time, we don’t have a way to compare how well other kindergarten classes across CPS (RGC or general ed) progressed. However, if you are looking for an “accelerated” feel, you might not get it here. CPS does not have benchmarks that RGC programs need to meet as far as using the “accelerated” tag, so it seems like a bit of a gamble.
