[quote=Anonymous]OP I also have a gifted child. He graduated from TJ (Thomas Jefferson School for science & tech) two years ago, so that was public all the way for him. His IQ is 145. ES and MS were a bit of a struggle, as he was not very challenged, even in the gifted program (AAP) Fairfax county, VA has a better system for gifted than MoCo, although there are many VERY bright children in MoCo also. Many of his colleagues at TJ went to private schools for K-8th then went to TJ. His cousin and aunt, who are also very high IQ, did private school all the way. I think private is more flexible and has more to offer, but that can be a financial burden. Gifted that far above the average is a kind of SN, in that you have to provide for it and it can get expensive. There are many programs for gifted children in the DC area, so you have come to the right place. Good luck![/quote]
