Is there a school system in NC with focus on Gifted & Talented? (Charlotte: transplants)

[PBarb]

Hi.. Transplant-to-be here. Not an obnoxious 'northerner'.. as some posts have implied regarding transplants. Just trying to get away from 'them' here in NJ!

Seeking a great school system in North Carolina for gifted child going into 5th grade (at time of anticipated move). There is a distinct difference in school systems here in NJ, with regard to gifted & talented programs. Some barely recognize it, others focus on it.

Can anyone recommend a public school system, or private school in NC that focuses on Gifted & Talented students?

I have read the posts in other threads about Metrolina in Charlotte. Any other major city in NC have this type of school?

Thank you kindly!

School system? No. Individual schools have various G&T programs, so you will have to do some research on that.

Each school district website will have info on what they can do for G&T students and what G&T programs they have.

I will warn you that many have application dates of January for the following school year and you can't apply until you live in the district.
