It sounds like your niece is a really great parent. And it sounds like she has run into some of the same road blocks that others have run into in trying to keep up with exceptional kids.
I don't have any great advice for her. I'm afraid she will just have to keep plugging away at it. I suspect that there are very few private schools that could do what she is trying to do. Public schools are really unable to do much. They are overwhelmed just trying to stay ahead of the needs of all the 'ordinary' students.
There are no telling how many extraordinary students out there who just don't get the recognition and teaching that they need to excel. And of course those kids are extraordinary in so many different ways that meeting the needs of each one is impossible in a school setting and very few parents are equipped to provide the needed support. And of course there is the time required to fit it in with all the other parts of life.
