There is an elevator, but on some floors it's on the ES school side of the building making it inconvenient and also causing some inexplicable political issues.  [b]There is no way to get to the gym without walking and some steps[/b].  There is no auditorium, the band room has a ramp.  I know at least two SN families that were given COSA to avoid SSIMS, one went to Takoma, one to Sligo (my experience is years ago now).  My DC has some minor physical disabilities but could negotiate the building.  No one warned us about the situation, but when DC was dropped off at orientation, I received a slightly panicked awkward call "Just saw met your DC, want to make sure DC is going to be okay"  Urgh, that was the day before first day of classes, too late to make a change without disruption.  Anyway, you're right to consider it now, it is a decrepit building and worth avoiding for that reason alone if there's a better option.  It all worked out in our case but it did cause issues.[/quote]

An inaccessible gym is against the law -- isn't it?[/quote]
