Anti-Elitism Toward Gifted Kids Needs To Stop

[plot]

Whatever happened to picking up a trade by way of a mentor?

it still exists and is thriving? join the construction industry doing hard labor... electricians, plumbers, masons, bricklayers, etc. all have apprenticeships.

anyways, in the gifted classes we had to do alot of work, in the remedial classes we'd get cupcakes for reading a page out of a picture book... i wish i was stupid again

I begged my school guidance counselor to put me in the 4th level classes or whatever, I loathed homework and was tired of failing for not doing it.

But someone with a degree will get priority regardless of intelligence.
