I believe school has something to offer my kid, that's why I'm sending him. Maybe I've just been reading too many of the gifted summer camp advertisements and testimonials. My son has come home from school, glowing, singing about "five little monkeys swinging from a tree, saying Mr. alligator you can't catch me.". Right now it's pure bliss and this is precious and beautiful.

Youth lives by personality, age lives by calculation. -- Aristotle on a calendar
