[quote=Anonymous]I think there are two kinds of "needs structure" kids. There are kids who do well in environments which are quiet, and orderly and predictable, and offer a traditional curriculum, perhaps with kids sitting in rows, and learning by reading and writing and taking notes. For that kind of kid, I think of Catholic schools, K-8's or someplace like Stone Ridge or St. Anselm's. For a boy, I think St. Alban's falls into this category. I think there are other kids who are disorganized and distractible, and need structure to reign them in, but also need instruction that's more multisensory and hands on and engaging. For those kids, Bullis, McLean, and sometimes Field can be good options. Which kind of kid do you have? [/quote]
