[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former McLean family here: It is a very woke school. Our family identifies as left-of-center but this is way, WAY, way beyond progressive. "Guidance counselor" (with the ironic name of Love) is militant. I'd describe it as a "Field lite". A lot of quirky kids like Field but without the pretty campus and with a lot of other baggage.[/quote] But what about learning differences?[/quote] I'm the first poster on this thread. The school is very soft-ball in its academics and very woke in its culture. It has some AP courses, but the scholastic peer group is not competitive and nor is the academic program challenging. This is probably perfect for a certain kind of insecure GLBTQ+ kid or a shy African-American child with LD, but it's an unpleasant environment if you have a boy who does not identify with these groups even if they are neuroatypical. Said differently, they are not interested in embracing neurodiversity. ;)[/quote]
