[quote=Anonymous] My son is smart but struggles a great deal with executive functioning. I know everyone says their kid is smart, but amidst all his various LD testing was found to be around 98 percentile IQ in a bunch of areas.  Just saying this for point of reference.

Anyway, his grades in high school are not good, he's got a 2.0 average.  He does really well speaking and listening, but writing and test taking and traditional sitting at your desk way of doing things is really difficult.  Bad adhd for which he takes medication, but it's not that effective.

He will be a junior this year. What I'm looking for is a school that will help him learn how to be independent in his studies, improve organization and study skills, and a place that he will also enjoy socially.   He's a computer guy,  but also likes to be social.  Never in trouble at school.

Parents who know about the school, what do you think for him?   We don't have a ton of money, so I'd be dipping into college funds to pay about 1/2 of tuition.

Thx!
