Maths is an extremely easy thing to do outside of school.
One or two grades at elementary level (US standards) are trivial to cover in months not years.
I had my DD doing Singapore Maths on her own - she basically taught herself from the workbooks/text books with some occasional (rare) questions that I or DW straightened out in minutes.
Slighty more difficult now that the Common Snore is in place because they introduce basic data analysis and probability in the earlier grades now but a small amount of research will allow you to find supplemental materials to cover those.
Of course, all the above depends on the child's level of aptitude and whether or not it is motivated and want to learn the material enough to be autodidactic with it.
By the end of 2nd grade she was done with SG Maths so we started the next year with AoPS pre-algebra.
I expect that you will deal with the same BS public or private if you have a 1 in 1000 or above child but your wallets will be lighter if you go the private route.
I suppose that what I am trying to say is that if you after school with quality materials your child can still stay with his current friends and make material progress academically with Maths.
YMMV
