    CTD is the best option I could find when the school district is reluctant to offer any help. Except that we live about 40-minute away from Northwestern Univ campus. Commuting every Saturday is a big concern for winter session. I sent my DS8 to CTD for four years. But DS chose not to go there this year because they are offering fewer and fewer classes nowadays. Many classes DS wanted so much are not on the list any more.

    BTW, I also noticed the macro-economic situation had some impact on CTD. We went there for EXPLORE test last Saturday, and the parking lot in front of Anneberg was only half-filled.

    We go to the Naperville location. It is pretty full from what I see and they are now going to do the summer program there b/c of the demand. We also do the long commute there, but there is nothing close to where we live.
