Special Six-Year-Old

This week, we learned our suspicions about Elliott were well founded.  We now know for a fact he is far above average.  He scored 133 on the IQ test, which is better than 98.6 percent of the general population and considered "very superior intelligence."  As a result, Elliott will be in Rockwood's Center for Creative Learning program next school year.

In addition, at this week's parent-teacher conference, Emily learned Elliott excels at math and is reading at nearly the second semester of the first grade level.  No doubt, once he masters reading, Elliott's knowledge base will explode.  He loves learning and already appreciates the power of books.

But the best thing we learned from Elliott's teacher is everyone who works at the school loves him.  Elliott's a caring, outgoing, and polite six-year-old, which is why I'm proud to be his grandma.
