Ok first of all the number one thing that really ticks me off if when parents label their kids as “advice for my math prodigy son” “advice for my amazing daughter” Every single sould in the top 10 prep schools in the country are amazing and most likely prodigies. And your son is 9 right now he has time to decide on what (HE) wants not what the parents want. With all due respect your son has quite a resume. But by the time he applies what’s really going to matter is NOT his level of math or irrelevant things like “he read at three” MOST BABIES CAN READ AT 3. Anyway it looks as if your trying to make your son famous. Again with all due respect “goldiggers” are not respected by anybody. Not saying you are one but no “private” boarding school will give 100% merit based aid to anybody! Regardless of whether he is a math prodigy or not. As DC mom and J’adoube said Duke TIP and Hopkins CTY are great programs your son should FIRST be exposed to before you think of getting ANY sort of aid to any sort of school. I’m sorry about the long comment but I enjoy writing and I’m also applying to prep schools and a current CTY nominee so if you have any questions feel free to write. To any CCers that AREN’T parents please chance me it would be greatly appreciated. I will chance you back. Thanks and I hope I helped.
