[quote=Anonymous]I have a 2nd grade DS.  He has ADHD inattentive, some anxiety, and EF weaknesses.  He's being evaluated for language-based differences because of his difficulties with writing but not with reading (at least not yet).  His verbal scores on WISC are superior, but his processing is low average.  Currently enrolled in a mainstream K-8 that is supportive via a learning center, but I have some concerns about long-term fit.

Wondering about McLean for 3d grade onward, but have heard mixed reviews about the school's commitment to supporting different learners.  Have heard rumors that every so often the school has an identity crisis, worrying that it's getting a reputation as a SN school and pulls back.  Website indicates school is currently leaning into its reputation as a supportive but mainstream/hybrid-type model.  Is this real or just marketing?  Should I expect that there might be another identity shift over the next several years?  Moving DS is a big deal to me because he has friendships and enjoys school, but I want to ensure he's reaching his potential too.

Thanks in advance for any insights.[/quote]
