Oh my, of all people on here, its one that might end up being a classmate!

Yes, I do go to Redmond and there are its ups and downs. We have classes of geniuses that scored 2400s in eighth grade in gifted classes. We have AP teachers that have recieved death threats for horrid instruction (but by AP students nevertheless). We have kids that do drugs and barely know basic algebra.

But I can promise you, that our school scores the best in the district, and our district is 10th in the state. If you feel superior still, there is a public school for the gifted- International Community School, still in the district. Only 300 kids, and its grade 7-12. Applications required, but its a public school still, and ranked 12th nationwide.

I can say, that either school you pick exceeds district, state, and national levels. There are other highlight schools such as Mercer Island, Newport, and Bothell, but the rigor in this area isn’t what you should expect of this country.

Like I mentioned before, if HS isn’t your thing, you can always do Running Start, and move onto college immediately.
