[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our son is currently in a supportive private school in DC. He has ADHD and executive functioning issues.  We are thinking of a boarding school to add more structure to his learning.  We've tried to provide a structured support system at home without much luck.  We've working with tutors, consultants, therapists and his executive functioning skills just seem to get worse as he goes along.  He is in 9th grade.[/quote]

OP - a few questions -

Is the supportive private a catholic school? or perhaps school that is just not equipped to handle the added demands of a child with LDs?  You could be much better of in public with a strong IEP. I think you're boarding school idea is coming out of frustration and exhaustion - we've all been there. Ha, I was actually just there about 10 mins ago with my DS!

[b]Also, is he on medication? [/b] i hope to ignore the anti-med troll who has been visiting this board lately. so if she/he chimes in - just ignore.
