p.s. Please don't flame me about my special snowflake. DC hasn't been formally tested but pediatrician and preschool teachers are all indicating that DC might lean towards the gifted category. I was myself, and DH is no dummy either, so we wouldn't be shocked, which again is why we're talking about these things.
OP here. I don't know who this poster is, but it's not the OP.

not able to find anything on APS website should give you a hint that APS does not stress its GT services.
the only surefire tried and true way to meet your special snowflake's giftedness is to go private. or homeschooling.
