You know I'm really, really surprised and disappointed that there aren't more gifted private (or charter) schools in our area. It's frustrating really. The only truly GT school is 1.5 hours away from us...

Cathy, I sympathize. This last week has had us looking at alternative schools to check out our options. Average cost was $15k which is probably not feasible for us either unless I switched jobs. And then I wonder if they're not catering to GT kids then that's a really big risk to take for a situation that may not be any better.
