My 12 year old needs a yeshiva where they have extra curricular and interesting learning besides Gemarah.
It needs to be a Chassidish Yeshiva, a very good and disciplined environment.

No drop outs, or half functional kids, or bums, etc.

We’re looking for a serious and strict environment, great staff and a great curriculum.
But catered to boys who don’t excel in Gemarah.

Does such a thing even exist?

במקום שאין אנשים....
May I humbly suggest you create such a yeshiva? I bet registration will be full in no time!

Both of these options are out. They have regular strong learning.

Look into Spink Yeshiva Ketana
Gan Yisroel cheder for kitah tess
Geltzeler yeshiva in BP- its a more lax yeshiva

His yeshiva is not what she’s looking for.

I want an all day learning program but by that I mean learning a bunch of different stuff, not just complicated gemarah.

I don’t want “lax” because that implies that it’s somewhat cool and a certain vibe if you know what I mean.

I want serious. My son is a great boy Bh, but has a hard time specifically with Gemarah.

Berry Weber's yeshiva is basically for OTD dropouts, struggling, or weak boys. Doesn't seem it's what OP is looking for.

I feel you. My son is turning 12. He’s actually brilliant and is great at Gemara etc. he just can’t handle the being in cheder from 7am to 6pm. And I don’t blame him one bit. It’s a lot. I’ve been loosing sleep over what will happen once we need a Yeshiva for him. I wish there was something for smart erlich boys that has some extra curricular activities like a ball game or some science experiments etc. but these things don’t exist in the chassidish world sadly.

Oir hachaim in bp is for these bucherim . It's not such a rigid long day . I believe they learn English too. It's for good bucherim from good homes . I have a nephew there
