[quote=Anonymous]We moved DC to a mainstream private and did private tutoring (school allowed it during the day). We have heard that at Siena, Mcclean, and Lab (have friends with kids at all), the teachers don’t necessarily push the kids to achieve (the ones with high academic potential). It’s also not a “typical” school experience in a lot of ways (sports, clubs, etc). My DC (mild dyslexia, dysgraphia, ADHD, anxiety) gets pretty good support but also gets encouraged to push themselves academically at their mainstream private. The only thing I wish they did better was teach how to use technology. DC has access to assistive technology but they are not taught how to use it, so that’s left to us (family) to teach. [/quote]
