[b]St. Anselms seems high stress, and some suggested earlier seem less structured and less traditional than sounds like you are looking for. [/quote][/b]

St. Anselms is about as structured and traditional as they come in this area.   As for stress, it is academically demanding, which can create stress for some kids who may struggle with the rigor.

St. Anselm’s is a great school (ignore the “hard pass” person who shows up in every thread involving St. Anselm’s, pretends he or she are multiple people, and often has posts removed). It checks most of your boxes; the only question is how your son — who you stated works very slowly — would respond to the academic rigor. SAAS is both highly structured and a supportive environment, which should help, but the pace is mighty quick. Starting in 6th would give your son plenty of time to adjust, but a lot depends on how your son’s anxiety is likely to manifest (or not) in the face of more challenging academics.[/quote]
