Is it 'normal' for it to be this difficult to find a good fit?
It's normal if your child is very unusual - the more unusual the child, the more difficult. But do check with your state Gifted Association, and any local(ish) gifted conferences that are held - you only need to meet one other local parent who has done her homework and then all the right answers start falling out of the sky.

But yes, in the beginning you just try and try and try - and you do gain from the experiences. For example now you already know that schoolage children are either 'way more flexible' than your child or 'way less interested or able' to learn what your child is ready to learn. It isn't mostly that the lazy, evil adults won't give them more ---- try it yourself sometime and see!
