Didn't know James was so smart

Had a parent teacher conference with James' teacher today. Apparently he tested pretty well on the math and reading aptitude tests. He scored in the 99.999% for both! It was actually off the charts for math and he tested at the 5th grade level for reading. I don't know what to do with him...they are trying different things at school to challenge him. I appreciate all the efforts that his teacher is making.


Hopefully by next year we'll be able to get him into an accelerated program or something. She said that he does act up in class from time to time, but we are taking about James here. That much can be expected.


They had a substitute last week for a few days and apparently the class acted up. James did make it a point to go up to Mrs. Murray when she got back and apologized for his behavior. He can be so sweet sometimes.

Taking Hanah to preschool now. We are a tad bit early...but oh well. Today should be a good day:)

I'm rockin' the suburbs!!!

    FYI, I've heard that above average kids act up in classes that they are way ahead of the other students... he's just too smart, he's bored. When everyone else is struggling to finish their work, he's done and needs something more to stimulate him... you should hope for advanced classes for him... Payton was just moved into TDP classes in Jr High... Talented Development Program... ;)
