Discourage her? Oh my no! In fact, we give her free rein in her high school schedule. She and her counselor cooked up some odd combination that allows her to take every advanced math course at the school. It involves skipping science and English for a year and doubling up in her Senior year. I am just here to sign off, and encourage.

Then later, when she has her grad degree, she can start reading philosophy to figure out what she just did. :)

My daughter Jean, freeper tealcandtrip, graduated at 19 from Southern Tech with a BS in math and in physics: She did some similar things by dual-enrolling in HS at the college: so she finished "high school" after three years as a college sophomore with some 50-odd college credits already on her transcript.

Keep encouraging her: the regular HS courses are dull and boring to many (all ?) above-average achievers. AP classes, college classes, etc all give a willing student a real leg up. Sure, the individual has to be willing to work harder than the average HS student, but that's possible.
