[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, how old is your kid and what do you mean by not rigorous enough?[/quote] OP. Thank you for all the advice in this thread! I feel like I have a lot of good leads. Only my older daughter is school-aged, and she's in elementary now - so I take the point that option schools might work, in addition to exploring private for middle school. By not rigorous enough, I mean that she doesn't get teacher support for working above grade level. Recently, she asked for help practicing a new math skill, and her teacher said no, that's next year's math. The gifted cluster program does help, but it's not like what I experienced attending magnet schools, which APS doesn't offer. I suppose we could move to MCPS; we like where we live though.[/quote]
