[quote=Anonymous]I had a child in TSS for middle school. They have "a diagnosis or two" and none of them is autism but they also have a high IQ. For the kids with autism, it seems like the smart ones who, more or less, want to be left alone and get some 1:1 instruction when needed, do well there.

It's a great school for ADHD in that they teach organization as a core feature of the school.

It's a great school for who are acyncroynous like behind in English but letter grades ahead in math.

It's a great school for dyslexia IF you are willing to hire an external tutor to come to the school and tutor at school. For us, this was the driving reason.

My kid transfered back to a public HS. They really struggled with advanced math in year 1 as they were not used to homework or the massive amount of work expected.

FF to end of semester 1: 2 not As and the rest As.  I truly couldn't believe it. I always had this feeling of a BS vibe when TSS told me that things were student led and done at their own speed to enhance their love of learning.

Turned out to be true for my kid.

This must be said, though. In our child's last year there, about 1/3 of the teachers left and one left with no notice (or maybe 2weeks). The administrator can be a challenge to work with for some parents. What was worse is that the remaining teachers filled in the gaps so I assume they were overworked.
