All sound like great fun in which a kid could develop personally as well as developing friendships. Upon reflection, I do see that soccer, dance, or an instrument have a stronger "team" aspect as the timing of interaction with others leads to success.

Oh, I do see now how the "timing of interaction with others" is what she (the Principal) was getting at. Thank you!

As for corrective feedback, they have a system for that and I suggested they use it if they feel he's bragging. But now I'm having second thoughts; mostly because of his comments about not trying to be an intentional braggart.
There may be a balance between how he experiences things internally and how others perceive them, an ideal solution would respect both views and help develop perspective taking or theory of mind for all kids involved.

I wonder how to help that happen?
