[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP  Just wanted to point out this is an old reactivated thread but I agree with sharonda1998.  For ADHD, I would recommend Commonwealth Academy.  We have been there four years.[/quote]

What about significant ADHD, where your child needs a lot of individualized attention?[/quote]

What grade level are you looking for and where are you located? The best thing for you to do is visit lots of schools (I got recommendations from our neuropsych but found that he hadn't visited certain schools in years). Also, I knew my dc best and visiting helped me determine "fit."  If I were you, I would visit Diener in Potomac and Newton in VA if you have a younger child. If you have a child in K-3, you might get a lot of individual attention at McLean as the class sizes used to be very small in the lower grades. Not sure if they have increased under the new head. Once you start visiting the schools and describing your child (and showing them reports), they will either say that it looks like your child fits the profile and should apply or they may recommend that you visit a different school (as the Commonwealth parent who recommended that you call their director of admissions mentioned). Good luck![/quote]
