[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would the fit be for an extremely smart HFA kid - not at all disuptive, just very quiet, rule abiding, hard working kid.[/quote]

Talk to the school; they are very open to frank discussions about fit.[/quote]

Thank you - also wondering how it would be socially - how welcoming the community and kids are to a quiet/shy kid. [/quote]

My son has been at the Abbey for 3 years and has a couple of quiet, shy kids in his circle of friends. I don't think your son would feel out of place. Honestly, the only kids my son has a hard time tolerating are the unkind/disrespectful kids and unfortunately there are a few of those too in his grade. Among the 5-6 kids in my son's circle of friends, there are different types (more or less academic, more or less into video games, a theatre kid, a musician, though all intellectually inclined and none super sporty) and I honestly think they appreciate each other's differences. A quiet non-disruptive kid would have plenty of opportunities to form friendships at the Abbey.[/quote]
