[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry for this child and family, and grateful they are bringing this horrible behavior to light. This situation has occurred at many schools in the area and people regularly chime in with some version of “that’s not our experience. X School is amazing.” Some students have very positive experiences and the same schools where students feel tormented…both can be true. Reading this complaint, I am so thankful that we opted not to send our neurodivergent son there for HS, despite their encouragement, both emotional and financial (scholarship offer). It was just a gut feeling and I’m glad I listened.[/quote] If your son is truly neurodivergent and pretty extensively on the spectrum--e.g., autistic--you made the right decision. If your son is a tad socially awkward and/or very cerebral/intellectual and/or insecure in predominantly "jock" or "bro" environments, he would find a very welcoming, diverse, and kind community at the Abbey. Many boys find a place of belonging, community, and flourishing at this school. Those who are extreme on the spectrum would struggle on a number of levels, as they would most places.[/quote]
