[quote=Anonymous]So, my son has ADHD and has learned a lot in school but hasn't turned in as much of his homework as I would like.
He is very well-behaved in class and would do well on school interviews.  
He currently attends a progressive public charter school and is in seventh grade.  We would like him to travel to school on his own using public transport.

We are the type of family that would normally enroll our kid in the local quaker school and be done with it.  But, we all know, that's not a thing here.  Sidwell seems lovely but he clearly wouldn't get in.  And it's not your average quaker school.

He has around a 3.5 GPA.
He always does very well on standardized tests, though I know not all schools consider these.

We are a middle class family but fortunately our children have been given enough family money to cover high school and college.

We live in DC near the border with Maryland near St. Anselm's Abbey School.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can share your knowledge and thoughts.
