Also, if you're open to Catholic schools those will have lower tuition compared to secular independent schools. [/quote]
What is the gifted range needed to be considered for the GT/LD program?[/quote]

https://www.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/curriculum/enriched/gtld/faq.aspx#q2

THE GT/LD SERVICE MODELS SUPPORT STUDENTS WHO—

have an educational disability that impacts the area(s) of reading, writing, and/or mathematics. Often, students also are impacted in the areas of organization/executive functioning, self-esteem, and/or attention;
have a pattern of strengths and weaknesses strongly consistent with that of a GT/SLD learner (see checklist);
are intellectually gifted and demonstrate superior cognitive reasoning ability (e.g., standard score of 120 or above on the WISC- Full Scale IQ, General Ability Index, Verbal Comprehension Index, or Perceptual Reasoning Index); and
need an educational setting that incorporates best practices for teaching GT/LD students, including access to accelerated and enriched curriculum, increased specialized instruction and support, and intervention for the learning difficulties.[/quote]
