It will be very interesting to see how many of the early commits have the grades and SATs/ACTs to actually gain admission to these schools.
It is hard to predict in 8th grade how a kid is going to fare in AP Physics or on an SAT, some kids can't do it even though they can get As in non-honors classes. I personally know 3 kids who had GPAs at private schools in the 4.0-3.75 range who were unable to crack a 23 on the ACT. I hope it works out well for everyone, but I won't be surprised to see some of these kids make changes later in HS.
