Long ago I came to the conclusion that I'm we're never going to find even what I'd consider a strong match in a school for our two sons. You've seemed to realize like I did, the best case real world scenario is simply finding a school that is willing to be flexible and hopefully finding a teacher or two who understands and has some knowledge of GT education. With those things in place, we've become accustomed to searching out opportunities and events that offer what I'd consider the real growth for our sons.
It isn't optimal that we have to piece meal a fulfilling education together, however, I grew tired of trying to fight "The system" and after a half dozen years of trying to change it realized that by the time I did make meaningful change, my sons would be long gone from that system. That doesn't mean I've given up the good fight, I've simply just come to the realization that the fight won't be won in time to greatly benefit my own children and alternative means are an absolute necessity.
