[quote=Anonymous]Toured the school several years ago, and asked how the school viewed their mission and was told flat out they were not a special needs school. When I mentioned to someone who had a child there, they laughed and said that was not the case. More recently, when I toured,  the school was far more circumspect about their mission, not using the term hybrid but kind of indicating they were willing to work with different types of learners.  I think they have a new administration and are using new language on their website, etc. When recently touring and looking at one of the lower level reading groups, it seemed to me that the level of that particular group was more than a year behind. But if they are dealing with certain  learning disabilities in the early grades that wouldn't  be surprising. They seem to make good use of technology and the kids seem pretty independent. But overall the school didn't seem that engaging.  Didn't see any real interaction with the kids, but no obvious bad behavior either. I do think parents see different things on tours but it is only one snapshot in time, while parents with actual children there may have a different experience. [/quote]
