[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Commonwealth parent here. Yes, your child will be challenged and I cannot say enough good things about the experience my DC had at C/A! The love of learning that was reinforced was incredible. DC left C/A after 8th grade for personal reasons (it was just too small socially). DC went to public high school and graduated last June. DC was admitted to 7 colleges (with substantial merit scholarship money), was waitlisted at a college admitting 18%, and denied at a college admitting 15%. I really owe DC's success in high school to C/A. If you child feels it is a fit - I say go for it! [/quote]

Thank you for this. We are also looking at Commonwealth but live in MoCo and nobody we know has even heard of the school. It's been hard to get feedback.[/quote]

We're also in MoCo and cannot commute to Alexandria. Are there any schools like Commonwealth that are closer to MoCo? Our son needs academic challenge *and* support for ADHD and building executive functioning skills. [/quote]

Mclean school. Though there are mixed reviews about its ability to be challenging beyond having multiple reading and math levels per grade. But lots of people love it.[/quote]
