[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone have any updated experience to share with the Benilde program here? We have a daughter who is accelerated in math and english/writing in public school but who has pronounced ADHD, so trying to find a high school fit for her. Any feedback would be great.[/quote] Benilde would be great for her since the program is designed for the kids to take the same classes (including honors and AP) as all the other kids at SJC but with added supports. My DS sounds very similar to your daughter though he excelled in science and writing. Terrible, just terrible at math and foreign language. They do a great job of balancing what the child can do really well and where they need help. Easing them into Freshman year is great too. There is a lot of maturing that goes on during high school and he was out of the program his senior year. My DS is now a chem major at a T15 school doing really well. He is registered with the disability office at college too though.[/quote]
