My son is also going to the Rocky Mountain Summer Institute (he's in the July session). We haven't done this before, but I am hopeful it will be an eye-opening experience--college campus, very bright kids, challenging classes. I hope he'll love it and want to do other talent search summer programs in future summers (Duke, Johns Hopkins, etc.) because literature says some kids "live" for these few weeks. Finally, to be among real peers and not feel so weird to be smart. That's what I'm hoping...
