[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 681729, member: 1963"] Could it be that he's not being taught in the way he wants/can learn? I know that kindergarten was an absolute disaster for me. I could read and write at the 4th grade level in kindergarten, and the rest of the kids were counting and stringing wooden beads, and learning to write their names. I spent my time wandering around class and getting into trouble, or staring off into space and stimming. Thankfully, in first grade, I was skimmed off by a program called "Access to Excellence" and allowed to learn in the way I could learn. Not only that, I was taught at my level and encouraged to go further whenever I was ready. It was like placing a starving person in front of an all-you-can-eat buffet. Perhaps Jack would benefit from an evaluation that would not only check for autism spectrum disorders but would also look for learning disabilities/superiorities/differences, so that an IEP could be set up mandating the best way to teach him.
