[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reed looks like a good fit for my DS, but it's relatively low graduation rate is concerning. Their material claims that it's because they are so rigorous, but that doesn't seem believable and/or they should prepare their students to be successful in their comps and thesis. Anyone have insight?[/quote] Is your kid high-achieving and good about getting things done, or does he need a lot of prodding? If the former, he will do well and graduate on time. If he is the type to procrastinate, I would be more worried.[/quote] He has ADHD so does tend to procrastinate, but always gets things done without prodding. He's happiest when allowed to go deep into a subject of his choice. For example, in 9th grade, he wrote a 15 page research paper in history class on a subject he chose, and he loved doing it.[/quote] That’s a tough one. You know your kid. If he is really interested in the subject it could be a plus compared to a different type of school. Reed is a great school, though. [/quote]
