That sounds like a really promising school! Like you said, give it a try! Nothing sounds more like music to my ears than "he can work at his own pace".
Thank you for the tip about the Natural History Museum! We are looking for all kinds of museums and fun things to do. We are also going to take them to the opera in Central city. Both kids are extremely interested in music (baby brother DS is 28 months) although I don't see them being concert pianists or anything. But a love for music can only be positive. DS28mo has an incredible ability to sit and focus so I think it should be fun.
Let us know what they say at the consult at the GDC. I filled out all the paper work but it wasn't until I spoke with her she realized he might hit the ceiling on the WIIPSI. We also talked a lot about his little brother whom also, most likely is gifted.
It was just an amazing feeling to speak to someone so openly and get such amazing feedback.
