I am the single parent of a sweet 13 year old son. We are looking for a high school for him for next year. He has ADHD and takes medication for depression and mood swings. He is a bright boy who lost his father at a young age and has no male role models close to him. I am willing to send him OOT and he is willing to go. I am looking for suggestions for a small yeshiva or one that can accomodate his "special" needs, which mostly means more patience when he is upset.
Thanks to anyone with ideas

Yeshivas Aish Kodesh IN Norfolk VA is known to be a very warm yeshiva with small classes and rebbeim who really love the boys. They have a dorm, extra curricular activities, chilled out dress code...

Contact Rabbi Benyamin Strauss in Lakewood. He runs an organization which helps place both boys and girls in high schools all over the world. He is very well known and does it all for free.

His number is 732 370 4505. His number is listed in the phone book.
