[quote=Anonymous]So, I have to decide whether to enroll my child in our homeschool which just switched to the Home School Model. I'm very worried. After visiting, the school doesn't seem really committed to making it work.

The school has added one additional resource teacher, but that seems insufficient. I have been told that additional staffing decisions are based on actual enrollment of SN kids. But I'm worried. In speaking to the principal, I don't get the sense that she views SN kids as a budgetary priority. My sense is that this principal would rather put the budget elsewhere and let my child suffer until we take self-contained placement out of her school.

I want my child mainstreamed vs a more self-contained placement. Are gen ed teachers prepared for this? What has your HSM experience been like? What questions do I need to ask to ferret out how helpful this principal is going to be if we have issues once there?

We are currently in a SN private for mild needs if this helps provide context. [/quote]
