Hi:

This is a tough one. You can try appealing to higher ups (Superintendent, Board). A letter from a professional stating how this class is detrimental to her could help. Perhaps she could skip a grade and then be moved up to the class beyond the one she is in now.

If she falls behind, there is no good answer.

Best of luck.
