We applied to Alt School and were wait listed. Our preschool director and the psychologist we work with have relationships with the school and reached out but we weren't able to get off the wait list. It does seem like an ideal place for gifted kids because it's so flexible and personalized. It also happens to have a campus three blocks from our house! For now, it's not an option but I am planning to go back and apply again IF the school we are in doesn't work out. I'm happy to hear that it is working well for others.
I wish Alt School would explicitly welcome gifted kids. As I have found out in the last week, there is a real need for alternatives in the city.
