[quote=Anonymous]It's entirely subjective. What works for one child doesn't work for another. A school might be great for severely impaired kids but terrible for dyslexic kids. You see the problem? There have been good years in FCPS and horrible ones. That said, I think FCPS really needs a program for 2e kids who perform at or above grade level but who have autism or ADHD that impairs their ability to participate in a regular classroom without a lot of teacher redirecting. Most SN classrooms are focused on remediation at a slow pace and teachers in general ed, honors, or AAP have trouble dealing with behaviors our "smart but impaired" kids have. They need to have classrooms where they can get the academic challenge they need, along with the social, emotional, and behavioral support. Unfortunately, private school is not an option for most parents at 40K a year or more. [/quote]
