My kids are both under 4 years old right now, and I have started looking into any options for them that will not include regular public schools in the 2016/17 year. I think regardless of the specialty of the school I will look for a place that is vary focused on project based work, group work, active learning.......... and gives lecturing/notes/practice assignments a much smaller role. I don't believe my kids will need the repetitive nature of our public schools to grasp concepts, and I don't want them to grow the indifference towards school that I had.

Inquiry based schools are your friend.
You were probably gifted or at the very least "bright". There were some alternatives for you back in the day but these days the CBE is much more on the ball about coding kids properly.
