Preferred term

skipping grades  

Definition(s)

  • Skipping a grade is a form of acceleration for students who are academically advanced. Allowing students to participate in classes that are traditionally taught to older students provides the appropriate educational experience by matching the level of the curriculum with the motivation and readiness of the student.
