[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLeann parent here with a child in the middle school. First, I have noticed that since McLean does not follow the county their curriculum often will look like it's all over the place. I think it is (can contain work from the year lower and year above current grade). So, when you leave there are most likely gaps in learning. I also do not feel it is a GT/LD school. I think the county is a better bet. This does not make it a bad school. It is a school for a student who really needs the extra help and [b]needs to be built back up after being in bad academic situations[/b].[/quote] I'm 23:19 above, and I think that's exactly it. At least in the lower school, it reduces the demands so that kids can feel successful. That's really important for kids who were really suffering at previous schools and feeling "dumb" so they can learn to like school and learning, but it doesn't serve kids well who haven't had that experience.[/quote]
