You didn't say the age of your child, but my daughter has a very similar profile and we've found a High School that meets her needs fairly well- Latitude High (a public charter school). It is a project based learning school with a block schedule, small groups of kids that stay in the same pod over the 4 years, and a wonderful special education department that supports her IEP. If your child is younger, I would encourage you to look at the reel2e.org site in general, they have a list of schools that may serve 2e learners (reel2e.org/post/2e-private-school-panel-2022). Feel free to reach out as well and good luck in your search!
My child went to Latitude first semester of 10th grade. We too had heard good things, and even knew people there. However, it was not a good fit for her, and there were a lot of problems at the school -- many fights, multiple set fires along the fence line, poor organization. I also hear that a few teachers have left. We moved and transferred schools in the middle of the school year to go our local public high school. My child had a lot of catching up to do academically. (FYI - at least when we were there, they didn't even offer all the A-G requirements, stating that students could get them completed elsewhere, such as dual-enrollment)
