L3, accolades!

Our daughter attends an excellent public high school, but we had to move, change jobs, etc., to get her in it — her previous school was so awful it was worth it to change our lives completely.

When we lived in Texas (Austin, not Houston, sorry), the Eanes District had a truly wonderful gifted program. The best, though, is ATDP at UC Berkeley, sadly only a part of summer each year. The kids declared when they were young that they would be happiest if they were *allowed* to cover a year’s worth of a single subject every four to six weeks with a little break (a week?) between. “School the way school should be.”
