<p>ItsnotHogwarts: I can see where it might be intimidating to mention the name of a school (or schools) that are not the 8 most mentioned ones on CC. But, please know that there are LOADS of us here (active and lurkers) that are interested in non-hades schools. You might be surprised by the information that comes out of the woodworks. I seriously hope no one on this board would criticize a specific school simply because it is not their own first choice! IMO, it sounds as if you are on the right track so far – you are searching for the right place FOR YOUR KID and not choosing schools simply based on name or reputation. No matter the school (or the level of the school) that is of paramount importance - for all families.</p>
