[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, the only thing that worked for us is moving. We took our DC (anxiety, ADHD, dyslexia, dysgraphia) out of DC to the midwest. The school is amazing and they are finally thriving. Literally thriving because they are in their perfect environment. I understand that no everyone is able to do a move like that, but our kid was drowning at FCPS. Major school avoidance, low self esteem, high anxiety, not making any progress, etc. Now they are thrilled to go to school, the self confidence is soaring and there's talk about moving them up a grade level for math. Yes it is a private, but even at that not all public schools are alike. We've found the smaller, midwest public schools also provide far better accommodations. Another new family to our neighborhood have a child who has autism and often elopes. After coming to this public school they no longer even attempt to elope. They enjoy school too much and are doing incredibly well. If you can move further away from the city to a smaller public school pyramid that actually helps kids who need accommodations run there! I wish I knew of some in the DC area off hand.[/quote] Where is this amazing Midwest school?[/quote]
