[quote=Anonymous]My child is on the spectrum but has a very high IQ. He has raw intelligence, but his executive functioning is terrible. He is also not into sports and is a bit socially awkward. He is doing well at his Upper NW elementary with no extra support. I don't think he can handle a large MS such as Deal, and we can't afford private. We can move to the suburbs, but those schools are still huge. Does anyone have experience with BASIS with a child like this? I read in another thread that BASIS requires a huge amount of executive functioning. I think he could handle the work as he is very academically inclined, but he is not good at being "on top of" his things. He misplaces things constantly, is forgetful, daydreams, etc. [/quote]
