I'm not sure anything is stopping him from going back to normal school to socialize while studying the non-STEM subjects that everyone needs to do anyway? He could hang out with friends while doing that.

In order to get such early academic performance, the child has probably been trained very hard into enjoying corpus learning.

This makes it less likely for them to enjoy moving to a place where this topic is nonexistent.

Or, to say it in ML terms, it would be very surprising for this child to be trained so fast without overfitting.
