We had our daughter not in a private gifted school but a charter gifted school. The school required IQ testing, an application and interview like most private schools. The academics were wonderful the parents were not. Too many parents living through their children's achievements. The kids had a VERY skewed idea of their own importance in the world. After two years we left for an academically rigorous private school. This worked well for two years and now we are on the hunt again for the "right" academic situation for our daughter.
