But there are “therapeautic boarding schools” where children are tortured regularly. Do some SERIOUS investigative work before you send her anywhere.

In selecting a school please consider the following.

Do you want a coed or an all girls school?

Does the school offer reduced tuition?

You and your granddaughter should visit the school.

Your granddaughter sounds as if she might need individual attention. What is the staff to student ratio?

Does the school offer subjects that will interest your granddaughter.

Is the school close enough that you can visit on at least weekends?

What is the drop out rate in the school?

Will you be able to withdraw her form the school if there is a problem without loosing your tuition money.

Does the school have clubs and teams that will keep her busy?

How often does the school send home reports?

Are there psychological services available at no charge?

Good luck. You have taken the responsibility of raising a grandchild and that is not easy under the best of circumstances.
