Magnet programs operating from kindergarten on are one possible solution. The problem is that these programs are being effectively phased out because less-astute normals are insulted that everyone doesn't qualify. Which is the inverse precise equivalent of eliminating special ed programs.

Most criticism I've heard of them is that they suck up a disproportionate amount of funding.

"Suck up"? I went to magnet elementary school. There were more art and music teachers.

The average additional expenditure per pupil for magnet schools is $200/year out of $12.5k.
