My son is highly gifted. He was being held back in the public school system. When his work was finished he wasn't able to move on to the next assignment. They gave him busywork that did nothing for him. Here at home he can continue to learn without having to wait for his peers. If public schools could create a system where each child can learn at a pace that is right for them via computer lessons then our educational system would be much more effective.
