Just a note, AIG most likely means Academically and Intellectually Gifted, it looks like it's a designation in NC. I knew it couldn't be answers in genesis, but I was stumped.
I would vote large GT magnet. The snobbishness about being all AIG is a huge red flag for me. That is not healthy. I'm also wary of any school who thinks they have all the answers. No one has all the answers, and a school which can admit things can be messy or challenging is more likely to admit the same when dealing with your kids.
And kids feeling "less than" because they are not in AIG classes...that is a risk we run if we are honest about some kids having a particular talent in a particular subject.
However, it is possible to have a school culture where it's accepted that everyone has different strengths and weaknesses and that's just normal. I think this is a very healthy way to approach life - everyone has something to teach you, and you'll never be best at everything.
