[quote=Anonymous]Just read this thread in disbelief. I agree someone needing gifted education would not be happy at McLean - my child in the "advanced" math group and is just on pace with Mcps gen ed. But most of the kids in the class have at least one LD in reading or math. Much of the work is "below" grade level because this curriculum meets kids where they are - the school represents it can accommodate up to 2 grade levels behind so I'm not sure why the parents upthread were surprised. I agree that the rapidly rising tuition is disappointing. It's a niche place and I feel for parents who feel it was a bait and switch. But for my DD with average IQ, a moderate to severe LD in reading and no other needs, it has been a blessing to her and our family. She has confidence again, accesses and enjoys the curriculum, is learning to decode better and is thriving in the nurturing environment.[/quote]
