[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not the intelligence, it’s something else. In a school with more smart kids it probably wouldn’t happen. Or he might be bragging or talking too much in class.[/quote] He stopped talking two years ago and has made great social strides since then. They're literally looking over his shoulder and seeing his grades when tests/homework are returned. [/quote] That’s weird. Is this Catholic school? No online portal? What grade does this even happen?[/quote] It sounds like he was braggy when he was younger and this is a smaller school? I'm not surprised the reputation stuck as it's difficult to remake your identity when you are around the same people. Things will improve as he gets older and goes to a bigger MS and HS. I think this is also a school or area thing like others have said. DC has never been teased about being smart and it's definitely a positive social thing at our public school. [/quote]
