[quote=Anonymous]I'm struggling to decide where to send my twins for kindergarten, DS1 who has some challenges that seem primarily of the ADD variety (not hyperactive) and DS2 who is "typically developing."  Both have been accepted at Mclean and another more traditional private school.  Mclean seems likely to be the better fit for DS1, but not sure about DS2.  Obviously I need to decide what school is the best fit for each child, but I also need to consider the impact on them of sending them to different schools.  I am really loathe to send the twins to different schools (it makes me cry to think about it, actually).  
So, for the questions:  Do any "typically developing" kids go to Mclean?  How frequently do kids switch from Mclean to another school before high school and where do they typically go?  Because I've been looking at Mclean based primarily on the needs of DS1 I think of it as more of special-needs sort-of school, which may not be accurate.  Is it perceived as such?  If so, do people feel that that perception holds kids back if they decide to apply out to other (for want of a better term) more mainstream schools?  If anyone has had twins in the same class at Mclean, how did that go? 
Thanks in advance.[/quote]
