[quote=Anonymous]Lowell teachers are not trained to help with social awkwardness, so it is hit or miss whether you will have a good experience -- teacher dependent, as at other privates. Lowell does have a curriculum that focuses on social interactions as well academic prowess, but that doesn't translate into teachers who teach social skills. Especially with the huge faculty turnover the past 5 years, it doesn't seem like the school has been able to focus on teaching the teachers how to teach children a social curriculum. For what it is worth, you are likely best off finding a school that is extremely nurturing, and shows a real interest in your child - when people are committed to a particular child, they are more likely to learn what they need to learn to help her succeed.
