Parents love setting their children up to fall so they lie and hide issues then get mad when their child isn't thriving.

Are there a lot of behavioral problems at Field?

We also had that experience (in MS). Extra time wasn't a problem, but getting any other accommodation, or even just a basic understanding of executive function needs, was over promised and underdelivered.

Was that MS or high school? Sorry to hear that.

I'm curious what you mean (about Field)?

NP. If a student needs the supports that Siena provides, Field might admit them but won’t be able to meet their needs.


Field provides accommodations, Sienna has the OG tutoring built into the reading class daily.

I don't see these schools as comparable. If you are considering Siena, then I would not see Field as a suitable choice for your child.

Any parents on here with students who attend either. Would like to know about community, learning support and college admin process. Thanks!
