I think you would want to find out if your dc's IQ scoress fit into the range of scores the public school teachers have been recently trained to serve. (If the school is targeting 130s and your child is above 140 they still may not know what to do with him.)
Also, I wonder about the fact they are "recently" trained and just starting differentiating in the classroom. Maybe the teachers would be really open to suggesting you have about how to meet dc's needs. Or maybe they are just going to follow a new proceedure to the T.
I would try to talk to some other parents from the school to hear if the school administrators and the gifted coordinator have good track records with follow through.
I really hope this works out for your family!
