As a 'gifted' but bored student, I see so many programs (online, self paced programs) that I would have loved. My youngest brother was able to graduate from high school a year early with honors, yet he was the least academic out of all of us kids (5 total). I went to small high school with only AP Spanish and AP Calculus, of which getting into depended on what track you were put into in middle school (didn't make it due to just moving into the area). My parents were also very wary about not screwing us up socially (no skipping grades). Having these types of programs that go with you if your family moves, interest changes or anything else, would have been amazing!
