[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My assumption is that Lab, Siena and McLean are full of disruptive ADHD kids. The kids I know who attend there are not able to keep themselves organized, aren't terrific with emotional regulation, and are lacking in social skills. Such schools, who seem to cater to ADHD/Dyslexia, might not be the best fit for a high functioning, quiet ASD kid who is on track academically, even if they did admit ASD kids, which it sounds like they don't. [/quote] I can speak for McLean only. Definitely not full of disruptive ADHD kids, especially in the older grades. As a whole, I’d call the kids quirkier or less mature than their peerset, but skewing more typical than not. The kids who are less adept socially tend to leave for whatever reason. Same goes for kids with very mild ADHD and/or no learning concerns. It really caters to kids who might fall through the cracks in public school but generally behave/interact fairly typically.
