[quote=Anonymous]Current Lab parent here. Most of the people I know who left Lab did so for financial reasons. A few b/c of differences between parents and administration as to approach and/or intervention level. I've known a few who leave b/c they feel their kid is ready for a mainstream public but generally they still had an IEP. Language based LDs are so hard to gauge. You can be incredibly focused on remediation in the early years and progress can be so incremental. It really depends on the kid and the severity of the LD. Lab does reinforce strategies like flexible thinking or organization/homework skills that will prepare a kid for a different school. I can highly recommend the Lab summer camp whether or not your child attends. Definitely tour both schools. Oakwood goes through 8th and Lab 12th which may make a difference in how they present themselves. But I've found that most SN focus on independence for every kid, whatever that looks like. [/quote]
