Have you looked into dietary connections? Kids lke that are sometimes sensitive to food additives and food dyes. Is she ok with being in gifted classes? My older dd was in them at school and we thought it was such a great thing until she told me she really disliked them and she felt different from the other kids and like she just had a lot more work than any of the kids.Is she eating a protein snack aftr school ? Maybe you could ask her to write or draw what was good about her school day and not so good.It sounds like she may be getting upset or overstimulated at school and then lets it out at home.Sometimes coming home and having a snack and switching her bath time to the afternoon might help her relax. Was also going to suggest you put Epsom salts in her bath. The magnesium is absorbed thru the skin and is very calming and relaxing
