[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are private schools better equipped to handle kids with ADHD unless they are specifically chartered to do so?[/quote] They aren't necessarily but in our case our DC did better with smaller classes, ability to have frequent meetings with teachers, and it was easier to schedule extra time on tests, etc. We were also concerned that at our MCPS (where we have a child so know it very well) he would be in grade level classes rather than AP/honors and that wouldn't be the best fit, but that APs and honors would be too fast a pace. Also in private school our DC only had 5 academic classes rather than 7 so it was just easier to focus and manage.[/quote]
