I can totally sympathize with this. We have a somewhat similar situation with a DS4 who can quickly adapt to just about anything (except boredom). It is a subtle thing - like the Dog that Didn't Bark in that Sherlock Holmes story.

If your child is DYS eligible I would go ahead and apply - the get togethers in Reno seem like a great way to meet peers with a high LOG.

We do gifted private school and I had similar concerns about MG blending - but I figure this is the best we can do right now (and it seems to be working).

BTW (and this is no knock on teachers - they have a hard job) teachers are terrible at determining giftedness. If a kid has a, say, 1 in 500 cognitive profile it is likely that he is the only kid that far out on the curve she has ever taught or will ever teach.
