The school definitely says all the right things about itself and supporting PBL. They claim that much of the first two years are spent learning to do projects, and that there is a huge amount of scaffolding of EF skills, especially for 6th and 7th graders. We're trying to find out how true that is.
DD11 really wants to try the new school (if she didn't, this decision would be easy). She definitely has executive function limitations, but has made huge strides this year. She was officially diagnosed with autism this week, too. It's been a crazy and emotional week, and it's only Wednesday!
