Every single kid we know who goes to SAES is awkward/has social difficulties or other mild issues.  Its a fairly long list.  Super nice kids who are [i]very[/i] bright but that have a tougher time than most fitting in and making friends.  I'm sure there are some SAES kids who are completely neuro-typical but it IS a school well-known for accepting and doing a great job with kids who have some challenges.    This is a good thing.  Its admirable that kids who struggle at other private schools tend to find SAES a warm and welcoming place that helps them overcome challenges.[/quote]

Thank you for being honest and for stating this so perfectly.  This has been my understanding, but every parent of a current or past student will swear that this is not the case.  Our family is seriously considering sending DC to SAES next year, mostly because of the warm and welcoming part.  DC is academically doing well at a top 3, but finds it not so warm and welcoming socially.  Think SAES is perfect.[/quote]
