[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also, while I value chess dad's advice, there's always stuff left out of the story like their child had a lot of outbursts at this supposedly great charter and they also spent a year at Auburn where their child did not do well at all.

I bring this up to you OP because things don't always go in one direction. With those diagnoses it's sometimes one step forward two steps back. I've been happy to hear chess dad's child is doing well at the mainstream private.[/quote]

It’s mom not dad this time.  DS had a bad 1/2 year in second grade before his ADHD was diagnosed.   Also, DS did not get along with his Sp Ed teacher in second grade and she was replaced.  So much for out bursts in elementary school.  Overall, our charter was great for prek-2 and ok for 3-5.

DS went to Auburn for a year.  A huge waste of time and money.  He certainly did not learn anything that year and I got more phone calls than I ever did at the charter.  DS’s behavior was awful that year too.  Terrible fit.

OP here. Where did you go from Auburn?  I'm very interested in that because I heard that once the kid is in a SN private like Auburn/KTS, it's relatively hard to transfer him/her to a mainstream private since the mainstream may not want to take a chance on a student from SN private.
