[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look at Waldorf and Norwood, Sheridan and other K-8s.  They are smaller communities.  [/quote]

If you want super-nurturing I would advise you to take a look at the schools that specialize in the early elementary years like Primary Day, Harbor and some of the nearby Montessoris. I would also try to see if they would allow a mid-year application as these schools stop at 2nd grade and I would want to maximize her time there.

Also agree Norwood might be worth checking out. Don't know much about Feyman except that there are a lot of bright kids and it's extremely small which could be good for your DD. The downside may be academic pressures.

I would make the investment now to put her in whatever school is best no matter what the cost and think about switching her to another less expensive school or to public when she's matured and has a better view of school. It sounds like she needs help now. School should be for kids at this age and I'm sure there's a great match for her among the schools in this area. [/quote]
