[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of privates, maybe all, have learning centers but they really vary in quality.  There are schools where the teachers themselves are poorly equipped for kids who need supports and fob it all onto the learning centers.  So you are right to be careful.

I have a DS at McLean and love the school.  I think it would provide everything that you need.  You should know that sports aren't its strong suit.  They do have lacrosse and basketball teams (and their high school basketball team just won its division).  You might want to speak with the head of the PE department, Bobby Meyers, about whether it would be a good fit for your DS.[/quote]

I was going to say the same thing about McLean-great school, but sports aren't their strength, but they certainly have teams. Flint Hill tends to have better sports teams overall, but they don't offer as much academic support as McLean. Not sure if Lab has sports teams. I think St Andrews has the combo of a great program and good sports teams.[/quote]
