[quote=Anonymous]Former Siena elementary parent. Can't say enough good things about the experience. Very good reading and writing instruction. Also good support for ADHD. We found that excellent special instruction solved a lot of the emotional sensitivity problems caused by the stress and anxiety of not succeeding academically. Also, we had sent our DC to Montessori, which I loved as a form of education. It was great for DC's math skills. Montessori was not a good fit for the language weakness, however. Because Montessori relies on kids to "choose" activities, DC never chose the activities he struggled with and needed to practice, compounding the language weakness. We finally agreed with DC's Montessori teacher that she would give him choices during part of the day that involved choosing only among language-based activities. Still not ideal, but better than allowing him to skip altogether. [/quote]
