[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your child has ADHD and anxiety, and you acknowledge he won't get his IEP in place and publics tend to struggle with special needs students, why do you think Churchill will be better than his private?

How does your DS feel about his private school currently?[/quote]

OP here.  I don't necessarily think Churchill will be better than his private. He likes his school but I'm finding that our friends with kids in the same grade and who attend public middle schools (not in our consortium but still) seem to be a bit farther along. I'm not very concerned about that but honestly, we don't have the kind of money that many in this area seem to have so the ROI concerns me.

Just wanted to get some info/advice and hear others experiences. [/quote]

Got it. Then if it really is a financial-based decision and you're not seeing the ROI, then I do think you're not going to be TERRIBLY worse switching to Churchill.

I don't know the exact private school your son goes to but in terms of MCPS, Churchill is among the best academically so at worst, I think he'll maintain a similar level of education to what he's getting now. It might be better depending on additional specifics.[/quote]

MCPS has plenty of comparable academic opportunities, but it's completely on you to take advantage and keep up. [/quote]
