We went the gifted private route at 4. Yes it is expensive. Yes it is a long pain in the neck commute. But it also solved so many problems in one fell swoop.

We did try a very small amount of private kindergarten at my son's old preschool. It was not a great fit and the private school works way better.

The teachers are used to quirky gifted kids, and the kids have an instant peer group. If you can swing it I think the private school may be worth it.
