Hi all,
I was going through some old papers, and happened on my kindergarten
mid-year progress report card from 1-29-68.   Of special note was an
additional note-card stapled to the inside.  To quote Mrs Kepler:
"Terry could be a very good kindergartener. He has the ability but not
the interest.  His attention span is very short for everything except
block-building"

Yeah, I'll second that.  As someone who often got reports like "lots
of ability, easily masters material, but we have problems keeping him
on task" I consider that sort of report to be a compliment.
