My son has just been tested recently as part of admissions into a gifted charter school. While the test showed he was in the profoundly gifted range (99.9%) on the Stanford Binet 5 the lottery drawing prevented him from having a spot. So he is going to a very good public school. The principal's bio said she has certification in gifted education so I am hoping she will be open to working with us.

What I'm wondering is if anyone has had any experience with private tutors to provide enrichment outside of school? My son is extemely interested in Science and Math so I thought this might be a good idea.

Any advice would be most appreciated.
