The later you get, the harder it is to skip a grade because of specific material you’ll be missing.
Since elementary school I was practically begging my school to let me skip a grade. I was frustrated and bored, and by fifth grade they had actually run out of content to offer me and I spent 80% of my day doing whatever I wanted (aka reading constantly). I moved after that year, and it took less than a month at my new middle school for them to decide to let me skip 6th grade. They wouldn’t let me skip 2 grades because they were worried about social and age differences.
Anyway, most of 7th grade was somewhat miserable because I switched in partway through the year and everyone already had their friend groups. I do not regret my decision in any way, shape or form.

Skipping in high school is a different ball game, though. You have certain requirements, usually specified by the state, as to what you have to do to graduate. At this point, I feel like it’s less skipping a grade than it is graduating early. I don’t think it would hurt to discuss these options, but I’m not sure how much this would help you at this point.
There are also a few bits of your writing that concern me somewhat, like “i know theirs ups and downs.”
