My daughter has ADD - not really "severe", but it impacts her executive functioning skills. She loves school and is quite "smart". She "gets it" academically, but has a hard time organizationally. On level classes are a bit slow to her, but she has a hard time keeping up with all the paperwork of an honors class. 10th grade was challenging, so we lowered the # of honors classes she was taking for 11th grade. 11th grade is much better and she is less stressed. Her overall GPA is a 3.2 (3.71 in 11th grade). And she has a 159 on her PSATs (translates to a 1590 on SATs).
She is also a young junior (just turned 16 last Nov) and immature (sometimes in a good way!) for her age. I feel like she shouldn't be anywhere too rigorous, but still somewhat challenging. And to be around other motivated students.
She wants small class sizes. Any ideas in the mid-Atlantic-ish area (MD, PA, NY,VA, GA, SC, WV, etc) area? She likes chemistry, math, and in engineering. She is not a "typical" teenage girl. Not a partyer, not interested in Greek life, not into a girlie girl. Any ideas or suggestions is appreciated!
