I need a middle school that is inclusive to gender non conforming kids and isn’t too far from SSFS area.

Sigh…


Same.

There are two Friends schools discussed here.

https://www.friendscommunityschool.org/

Has some spaces open for middle school. Is not perfect, but tries to accommodate gender non conforming kids (uses preferred pronouns, has non gendered bathrooms).

I currently have a student there, facility is not run down, teachers are very good, new incoming head of school shows promise. Has some administrative communication issues but every place has some sort of challenge. It’s worth a look.

Evergreen School is pre-K thru 3rd and might have space.

Also Mater Amoris which goes through MS.

Both progressive, Montessori schools.

Agree. Families with children in K-8 should reach out to the Sheridans, Lowells, Norwoods, St. Pats, Green Acres, etc.

Green Acres is a wonderful K-8 school. They might still be open to accepting students for lower or upper school .

I doubt that place is long for this world. An Evangelical church bought the building.

McLean has an accepting culture. Maybe there?

Springwell? They're probably closing next! Nora School? Field School, Burke, McLean, Lowell, Sheridan, I feel like those are all pretty inclusive communities

Burke had a 2nd application window.

After decisions were announced, I was getting emails from McLean.

Christ Episcopal School has been fantastic for my rising 5th grader. They are still accepting applications.

Don't assume that 'top' schools in the area are fully enrolled and everything is stable. Someone mentioned in a previous post that given the general state of unease around, well, around the world, things are much more fluid and changing. Reach out to all the schools you might be interested in.

We’re currently at Green Acres, and I think they have some spaces- it’s a very inclusive and supportive school.

Washington Waldorf working to help. Great school and similar philosophy.
