[quote=Anonymous]There is an anti-McLean poster who has been posting about this for some time.  Its really not clear to me why she scrutinizes a school her child doesn't attend.  Mclean is a niche school and therefore isn't right for every child.  It wasn't right for her child and she seems bitter about it and always comes on to trash the school when anyone asks a question about it.  My DC has been there for years and we love it.

McLean has never been difficult to get into if your child is the right fit.  They will not take a child who has behavior problems or serious ld issues no matter what their enrollment numbers are.  It isn't unusual for parents of kids who need more than McLean can offer to apply because they prefer the fact that it is more mainstream and their children will not get in.  However, they've always had spaces for the kids in their niche, who benefit from the attention and small classes but don't need a full blown special needs school.  This has also always been the case.  I have a middle schooler who has been there since kindergarten and I have not seen any difference in the students they accept.

If this is the right school for your child they will have space for him.
