Wow acs - how wonderful! I am keeping my fingers crossed that I will encounter similar support when we enter the school system. I attended a meeting where it was discussed that the superintendent has made a real turnaround and is on board for getting better programs for gifted kids, but they're starting in high school (which I don't have any problems with, those kids have missed out long enough, I'm just hoping it trickles down sooner rather than later).

Kimck - we were lucky to have found someone with an HG kid in our school system. She approached us when she got to know our son (and she recommended testing before school). This person, whose HG kid is 9, was the pioneer in our district and has been very busy advocating to help these kids. You might find you have to be the pioneer.
