[quote=Anonymous]If your kid is a straight A student and scores well on the SSAT, GDS might be possible. But, as others have said, GDS is a place where kids must have strong executive functioning skills. Kids have a lot of independence, can go off campus for lunch and really have to stay on top of things. While there is support, there is also no hand holding. The block schedules, open campus, etc. really make it feel more like college. That doesn't work for kids who might need more structure. [/quote]
