[quote=Anonymous]I agree in general on boarding schools. Our 2 have both attended boarding schools. Incredible experiences for them. Wish I had gone. But the environment certainly is that it is hard to get away from everybody. Despite that, you might look at the nearby ones, which would allow your DD to return home as needed without flying. You might want her to be within an easy drive. On privates, you might look at St Stephens in Alex and McLean or St Andrews in Potomac. Great schools, less intense, than others. On public, you might consider whether your local HS would work for your DD. I am not convinced that a larger public HS, even a good one academically, is a great place for those with anxiety. [/quote]
