[quote=Anonymous]With regard to The McLean School, we had a great run there for middle school, but they are picky about who they take and they do cater to helping kids with minor cases of ADHD, hearing problems, dyslexia, but not kids with behavior problems.  In fact, the one time my son was bullied, the bully was out of the school the next day.  About 50% of the student body were kids who had minor attention issues - the remaining 50% were siblings who had no issues whatsoever - the parents were just so impressed with the teaching that they had all their kids attend.  And in all my years there, I rarely knew which kids had "issues" and which did not.  But it is expensive.  Also McLean's head is retiring AND they are searching for a new middle school head.  But definitely worth a look.  Very small classes.  XLNT computer lab.  Great teachers.  And a very affirming environment (almost too much- some parents complain that just showing up shouldn't get you an attendance award - but you can't please everyone)[/quote]
