HJA: Yes, he does happen to have the same teachers as last year. Actually come to think of it, that makes it even more frustrating to me that they still haven't noticed that he's reading. He was starting to read quite well already toward the end of JK, and they still haven't noticed.
bluemagic and George C: I think he'll eventually be in the same boat as your DC (and many more like them). Ultimately, even if he doesn't get bored this year, he'll get bored at some point. And that's when the real problems could begin.
But even more than that, it seems unfair to a child to have them sitting on the sidelines until they finally get to learn something in the classroom. And at the rate this kid seeks out enrichment at home, that could be a while. I guess there are many parents out there who would say that's a nice problem to have.
