Generally, I don't think schools have the expertise to help kids like yours. You may want to start reading everything you can and look around at schooling options. Homeschooling is one way to go. Some communities have homeschooling social times and activites.
In our prior school, the GT gave my child extra work, instead of just appropriate work, after they said she wouldn't. Now, I am dealing with underachievement as the result.
You may want to consider a weekend or afterschool activitity that can foster ambition and love of learning. Some ideas - Music lessons, Nature Center Classes, Art, Science, Natural Hist. Museum Classes, Robotics, Chess.
