[quote=Anonymous]I was that bored kid in school. School skipped me one grade. Socially it impacted me so they weren't going to promote me any further, but academically I was still bored. The teachers let me work at my own pace and then just read a book. I wasn't a trouble maker but was dying from the pointlessness of sitting in class reading my own books and helping other kids learn material that I already knew instead of getting to actually learn myself. Some teachers might give me extra work, but they didn't have the time to devote 1-on-1 to helping me learn that material. This was in the 70s and 80s before the days of AAP and gifted classes. Based on the strong recommendation of my teachers and school administration, my parents put me in private school. Bored no longer![/quote]
