I'm in my schools gifted program. That means you need an IQ in the top 10% (iirc) and tbh nobody there thinks that they're smart. Literally everyone there is a dumbass who thinks in numbers slightly more often than non gifted kids.
Also add on top the statistical likelihood to be autistic/ADHD (twice exceptional is very common btw), myself being both! It's just a normal class where those 2 or 3 kids who constantly yell/act up aren't there and on Fridays the teacher lets you make a windmill out of a paper plate, old paint brushes, and air dry clay. Last year the teacher accidentally made the finals answers all A. Tbh I'm just in it for my resume.

On Halloween she let us draw on the board
