Featured School: McLean School
Potomac, MD
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.
