[quote=Anonymous]In an educational setting beyond lower elementary, what works for kids with ADHD (and anxiety) can be very similar to what HFA kids need, which is why there are some ASD kids at Commonwealth. And based on what you share about your past school, could be a good fit. However, as they will tell you, they do not specialize in offering direct social instruction. It can be helpful to communicate to them that your goal is to find the best fit and keep lines of communication open. I think all privates worry about accepting an ASD kid and then have to counsel them out leaving disgruntled parents who argue 'but you accepted him'. FWIW we have a child at Commonwealth and have been happy there.[/quote]
