I don't think they offer acceleration within the grade where you would cover more material than average. That would be ideal, but I'm not certain if that's available.
This varies from school to school. A few schools offer these types of classes and they are wonderful.
Sometimes 'really good school systems' are the worst for highly gifted kids because these schools tend to be less flexible and less willing to accept that a child might be outside the norms of what they are able to provide for. That's what happened to us locally. In our state there were also 'best of the best' sorts of school systems that my sib's kids attended, and they truly did have programing for highly gifted kids.
I think you could figure it out if the neighborhood is one of the 'top 40' in the US sorts of places - then it might be 'best of the best' kind of district. If you have more of a sense of 'definitely above average' then you might be dealing with a 'really good' (read: danger!) type of demographic.
I hope that helps!
