[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the programs that "kick out" kids, are these feeders to elite private schools? The only way I could see a kid getting kicked out is if there was a legitimate safety issue. But kicking out a kid for developmental delays is simply horrible - it really upends the parents' life. Finding care is really hard if you're two working parents. I'd really be tempted to name & shame publicly online.[/quote] I haven't seen any programs that don't have some sort of expulsion policy. Sometimes, a school truly cannot effectively support a child with disabilities. It is difficult for the child but most preschool/daycare programs are private programs and do not have this obligation nor do they have funding to serve all needs. That being said there is significant variation in daycare/preschool policies. Our daycare emphasizes they train their teachers to address difficult behaviors and that expulsion/counseling out would be a last resort. Another very well regarded daycare I know has a policy that basically says they can expel anyone at any time at their discretion. I have observed that expensive/elite preschools have a tendency to be less inclusive than your average daycare. Obviously, there will be exceptions. Some require families to hire one-on-one aides for their kids if they want to stay. It's not easy being a special needs parent.[/quote]
