Good. I was worried I was being too honest for a first post.
Though you may be giving us too much credit to think that we're sane here...
Certainly we're not a high pressure "push those kids 'til they drop" group! And thank goodness for that!
Without knowing any details about the schools or your child, I will toss out there that "good school" and "good school for my particular child" are really two very different things. We bought our house because of the school system...and now we're homeschooling! It just didn't fit our quirky HG+ kid. And because the schools are considered so "good," they tend to be extremely rigid and unwilling to work with parents to meet the needs of GT kids. But "good" in their terms was simply not good for him.
Also, an awful lot depends upon the teacher. A good teacher can make a horrible situation marvelous, and a lousy teacher can ruin the best laid plans.
Just some random thoughts...
