[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do high performing students care. They are already smart.

Not being snarky, but my oldest daughter graduated a blue collar HS right before we moved to Winston Churchill where my younger kids both are attending or will attend.

The valedictorian of her HS gave speech and he was a huge slackard, never studied, always running late and clothes wrinkled. Guy had a 4.0 and was brilliant. Since he was smarter than every teacher what would a good school do. My daughter had a class with him and the project was to build a robot at home and they had several weeks to do. He just Mcgiver like grabbed a bunch of junk in science lab, put a robot together out of spare parts in like five minutes and said here it is, teacher gave him and A and he left. My daughter said he always does that type of shit drives folks nuts. His commencement speech was short. He actually said I hear from some other students the school is pretty good and challenging but he would not know.  The Salutatorian who was this nice Asian girl I sensed you could fry and egg on her head when he spoke cause he said everyone has a GPA my GPA was just randomly selected as it was largest for the punishment of giving a speech and my random number wont solve any real issues so I did not bother writing a speech as I am sure you have better things to do.  I swear the tiger Mom of Salutorian who has like 20 of her family there was going to beat him to death with her high heels.

So bottom line, you kids are not special it wont matter and if you kid is special like these kid it wont matter either as he will already be smarter than any teacher there.         [/quote]

That kid should have been on scholarship at a boarding school getting challenged and maxing out his supposedly high IQ and making something of himself.

Instead his parents and school told him (indirectly or directly) to be a lazy bare minimum guy in a below median school. Too bad he never found a mentor or sponsor.[/quote]
