[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the replies.  I'm surprised there aren't more options around here given the size and education level of the area.  There seem to be many more options in Boston (both public and private options for lower school) and at least a handful more around NY/NJ area.[/quote]

NY/NJ and Boston are known for excellent public schools but the towns with the top schools don’t have “gifted” programs in elementary schools.  They don’t need them in the towns that have the best schools.    From there the Boston area is full of some of the best private schools in the country.  Even some of the public high schools close to Cambridge / Boston are feeder schools for MIT and Harvard.  Roxbury Latin is an excellent boys private school for one.

Unless he’s a prodigy that’s currently doing 5th grade math and high school science he would be fine at one of the top rated town’s public elementary school while looking at the many options for middle or high school.  [/quote]
