[quote=Anonymous]We are at the Alexandria campus -- not Tysons. But I will offer my two cents, since there probably aren't that many people on here with actual experience of Fusion. The mix of students tilts toward kids with emotional and behavioral issues. This is not a complaint, since my kid fits that bill -- anxiety/depression/school refusal. It is a more relaxed pace than public school, and the one-on-one tutoring means kids can actually progress quite fast. The school seems to me to be very well run. The staff is warm and genuinely interested in my child and her particular situation. They really work with us and are very good at reaching out with concerns. They seem to be growing at a nice pace, too -- I was worried about that, because they have a lot of space and initially only had about 12 kids. But I think they will be at around 30 in the fall. Overall, I am very pleased. This program is meeting the needs of my kid, who has been to two public schools and an online school in a desperate attempt to find the match that will fit her situation, which is unique in some respects. The biggest issue with Fusion is that it's so darned expensive -- $40k a year for FT. [/quote]
