The It school sounds pretty darn nice.
I am giggling somewhat about MON's description of "unreasonably gifted", but she is so right. There is a type of GTness where it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to make huge sacrifices (like drastic downsizing or buying a house you can't comfortably afford) just for a particular school. If you have a HG+ kiddo, or a 2E kiddo, sometimes school situations will only work out for short periods of time.
Does the district you're looking in restrict where you're kiddo can go? In my state, you can open enroll your kids in any district as long as there is space. If open enrollment is an option in your state, one thing to consider is moving to a sort of central location among decent school options.
We have found that the perfect school may not exist for all kids, but the better solutions to not-quite-right fit all included flexibility in terms of being able to offer more when necessary (in the event that your kiddo turns out to be "unreasonably gifted"). Some of the "mores" for us included differentiation, subject acceleration, whole grade acceleration, pullouts, clustering. And unfortunatley, even with all this flexibility, it wasn't the best fit and we ended up open enrolling our kiddo in an out-of-district school for HG kids.
Good luck with your decision making!
