And it seems like even when a school is following the Montessori way, a problem that at least some gifted types have is that Montessori allows kids to learn more or less at their own pace, and then they ceiling out -- and that's when the problems begin. The school runs out of learning tools and activities for the kid, and a kid who was fully engaged, etc. suddenly becomes restless. It might be a case of the school's benefits bringing about its eventual failure.
