Hello,
We have a first grader with autism. We are currently in Pennsylvania and services here are awesome. My daughter is in general ed classroom with a PCA. She has an IEP, good services and is progressing steadily. She has high functioning autism with some issues of escaping that we are working on. We are considering a move to Loudoun County, VA to be close to family/friends and also for a new job. Therefore, wanted to check how the services are for kids on spectrum in the public schools in Loudoun County. Do they work/reevaluate current IEP? Do they offer PCA if necessary/allow outside providers like a BHT? Are kids with autism placed in general ed classrooms and offered services? Do all elementary schools also have separate autistic support classrooms? Also, in general are there agencies that offer Speech/OT through insurance? We have Cigna insurance and all services are pretty much covered through insurance here. We want to understand how it all works in nova. Any insights would be very helpful. Thank you.

Hello
We are contemplating a move to the Loudoun County Area for my husband's new job. We have an autistic 6 year old currently in 1st grade. We wanted to learn more about autistic support classrooms in Loudoun County public schools. Are the services good? Any insights? Do the public schools provide curb to curb transport as currently our child's IEP states that she needs curb to curb transport. Although she is now in general ed classroom with a PCA, wanted to get an understanding of how it works in Loudoun County public schools. Any insights would be very helpful.

Hello,
We have a first grader with autism. We are currently in Pennsylvania and services here are awesome. My daughter has a BHT in school and also a PCA if the 1:1 is unavailable. She has an IE, good services and is progressing steadily. She has high functioning autism with some issues of escaping that we are working on.

Do they offer PCA if necessary/allow outside providers like a BHT? Are kids with autism placed in general ed classrooms and offered services? Do all elementary schools also have separate classrooms for kids with special needs? Also, in general are there agencies that offer Speech/OT through insurance?
