I saw this last year with one of my coworker's sons. The boy was 5 and doing 2 digit multiplication in his head and reading 6 grades ahead. This top notch DFW area district told him there was nothing they could do with his son. Luckily, his parents looked for alternatives and found a good fit for him and the boy is really happy where he is at.
