Wow, I'm surprised so many people don't have gifted teachers in high school... here there's only "enrichment" until highschool (those were gifted teachers, though), and then true gifted is a school-wide thing, even classes not listed as "g" are taught by the same teachers (except things like art, but those still have gifted-specialist teachers)
This isn't my kid, but when *I* was a teenager, the best summer I ever had was the summer I went to a sleep-away giftie science camp where I did physics12 and a co-op placement at a Nuclear plant (they played happy birthday to me on a particle accelerator on my birthday) while canoing every evening and being exposed to the killing and plucking of chickens for the first time... And, really, the only reason I'm posting is because it was *that* good a summer
(It was a place called Deep River Science Academy)
