Hi Maryann,
Welcome!
How many years does "intermediate school" cover in your area?
Will this be the first time your DS will be "not a fish out of water?"
From what I hear, the AP program is very popular with high achieving and gifted kids. One thing to look for is to structure it so that age or gade isn't a barrier to taking the AP classes. Seems like many districts don't allow AP classes until Junior year.
The on-campus school sounds intriguing, and I guess my question would be if there could be a way to get the sports and clubs and music usually availble in a traditional high school integrated into the jr. college program. ((A bus and a sister school arrangement with the traditional high school?))
All your examples sound wonderful. I would add "semester abroad" to the list.
Smiles,
Trinity
