[quote=Anonymous]Hi there! My son did PEP when he was 4. It was a great program but there is really nothing that MCPS offers for kids who are at grade level but who have special needs that make mainstream difficult. You have to present "data" to show that your child needs a more supportive environment than his homeschool for K. Meaning, you have to take your assessments from doctors and therapists and present them to the IEP team. Otherwise, the only thing you have is their assessment of your child's educational impact and progress. And it seems like the teacher thinks everything is hunky-dory. I would get to an OT and SPL for assessments now to submit if you would like support in public for next year. You could go private. My child is at Maddux. The kids in the class seem to be mostly ADHD and/or mild ASDs. The school does well with kids who need some academic support bc of their attention issues. And great social learning curriculum.[/quote]
