[quote=Anonymous]We have a TA graduate. Our kid suffered from serious anxiety, and benefitted from a school with very few behavioral problems. I am less confident that is the case under the current administration, but we are still considering it for another child. It is, in any event, a very warm and supportive environment. Everyone has a story for why they’re there, and everyone’s ok with that. Very LGBTQI+ friendly. Very flexible academically—they developed a class because of strong interest from one or two kids (mine was one of them). Academics are challenging, although plenty of students get lower grades and are still big parts of the community. Oh, my kid also exceeded our expectations in the college admissions process (not Ivy level (to which my kid did not apply), but scholarships at good small schools.. (Before you ask, as I recall from the graduation ceremony, there was a decent mix among the 15 or so grads from good to decent SLACs to not particularly competitive schools—see above for how different students handled the academic challenges. But every kid who spoke at graduation had clearly found it to be a transformative experience (as did our kid).) [/quote]
