We understand students first for what they can do, not for what
they cannot.
Serving kindergarten through grade twelve, McLean School's
comprehensive college preparatory curriculum is traditional without
being rigid, challenging without being intimidating, and designed
with the real world in mind. Our Abilities Model enables bright
students, including those with dyslexia, anxiety, ADHD, or
organizational challenges, to be successful in and out of the
classroom.
For over 70 years we have helped students realize their full
potential.
We recognize each child for their strengths, provide embedded
classroom support in areas of need, and foster resiliency. Whether
it's on the playing field, or the theater stage, in the robotics
lab or art studio, we offer a full-scope program of opportunities
for students.
At McLean, we believe in our students.
