They had all these "ideas" of what was going on because he wasn't like the other kids (note that this was a private religious school). They made him take an IQ test so that they would have an excuse to move him to some remedial classes. After he got a 136 they ended up leaving him alone but he moved on to a better school.

I didn't know students could be forced to take an IQ test.

I suppose in a private school they can do anything they want?
