[quote=Anonymous]Would recommend you look at McLean.

My DS was just admitted and will be entering as a 9th grader in the fall with a profile much like your DD's -- good grades, great kid, inattentive type ADHD. School has great academics, a rich curriculum, and about a 50-50 percent mix of kids with/without mild learning disabilities.
He's been holding his own in MCPS, but with college looming, McLean's approach to focus on learning strategies geared toward his needs will do him good. Their individualized approach however, can and does benefit kids without any mild LDs, but who are there for the great content.

The entire thrust of the school is working with kids of different learning styles. They have a new school head coming over from Sidwell who, from what I can tell, wants to grow the school a bit. I am really excited for DS for the coming school year.

If you are up to starting your search a bit early, there are still open houses at Mclean I think that you can go to this spring. Good luck with your search!
