[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They asked us up front if our child had ever been evaluated by a psychologist or neuropsych. If the answer was yes, we had to submit the reports with our application materials. The rest of his application process was normal - interview, placement test, shadow day. The only other difference was that I had to sit for a separate interview with the dean to talk about his issues and how they might impact his behavior and academic performance, as well as whether we would be on the same page about discipline, etc. (mild aspie kid) He got in and received financial aid and has thrived there ever since. That was in 3rd grade and he's in 6th now. [/quote] What school?[/quote] I don't feel comfortable disclosing the name of the school, but it's not a Big 3. It's a small non-religious independent in NoVa known for its academic rigor. [/quote]
