[quote=Anonymous]We’re not thinking of leaving now but we did make the move for our middle child in the past. Our oldest and youngest remained in public but our middle wasn’t getting what he needed there. We moved to Green Acres which was very supportive. I observed classes and he had the opportunity to shadow which really drove home that it would be a good fit. My son didn’t have ADHD but another disabilty and we were impressed with the support he received. They never argued about accommodations and if I came up with a suggestion for a new accommodation or technology they implemented it quickly. As a mainstream school they don’t provide intervention but for our child the small classes and progressive approach were game changers. I’m sure they have students with ADHD as every private school does but the question would be the level of needs. What’s nice is that the school ends in 8th so it’s easier to transition back to public for HS and a few did my son’s year. And if you think you will want to apply to the Blair or IB magnet, they will help with the process. We know a few kids who were accepted. [/quote]
