[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is Mclean and Maddux more schools for kids who have ASD or LD? If a child is only ADHD (no language/learning disabilities or aspergers) would these schools be appropriate? [/quote] Maddux is a SN school. Mclean is not but I've known parents whose kids have gone there who have certain issues like ADHD. So it may be more accommodating than other privates.[/quote] Maddux is not a special needs school. It is accredited by the Maryland State Department of Education. They provide a state approved non special ed program. They do offer supports such as OT and ST for those who need them. This school often gets confused as special ed, b/c it's housed in the same location as Ivymount, which is special ed. You may want to check out the Maddux school website. My DC would need the assistance they provide (built in) with social pragmatics and self regulation--which is often an issue for ADHD kids. [/quote]
