I think sometimes teachers can not see talent because of some of their own baggage, either with their own hopes for their kids, or their own experience as kids. Sometimes, if the teacher who can see the talent is willing to state that in front of the teacher that can not see it... it puts pressure on the teacher to be a bit more open minded. I agree with Grinity, the SAT scores often talk pretty loud. Good luck and I do not think it is to early. I have kicked myself for not being early enough at times when the changing is as the classes are not entrenched and moved to far ahead etc.
