[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Commonwealth Academy. No question.[/quote]

I only toured Commonwealth in the lower grades and have no other experience than that.   There were 20 kids total in the third, fourth, and fifth grades combined, so that worried me that it would be very difficult socially given the small numbers of kids.  I have heard it is an excellent school.  Does anyone with a GT/LD kid have experience with McLean or Lab?  [/quote]

I can comment on C/A from 8th grade through rising Seniors.  Can I answer any questions about that?  At the third, fourth and fifth grades, the classes are quite small because the school wants to maintain a 1:3-5 faculty/student ratio at those ages.  This is done on purpose.  Each class gets larger:  3rd has five students; 4th has 7 students; 4th has ll;  in the middle school each class has 20-25.  At the high school level each class has 20-22 students.  In middle and high school, the school is committed to no more than ten students in each classroom.[/quote]
