What private HS would be good for this kid?

I would add Sandy Spring to the above schools.

The academic pressure cooker schools are not a good fit for a kid who struggles with organization unfortunately.

I second this.

I like this thread. Posters had varied recs, but no one has trashed each others. Might be a first for DCUM on the private school forum. Nice!
And, BTW, I agree with Field, Burke, and St. Andrew's for your child's profile OP.

I think your son need help. You also need to discipline him. It sounds like he get away with stuff. Get a tutor and help him sit down and learn. You will be surprised that he is a top student. Then you can apply to private as private rejects student with behavioral issues. Let him visit many schools and choose which one he likes. Pay C2 to help him get it together.

I have to strongly disagree. Not a good place for a social kid and the commute would be a killer.
