[quote=Anonymous]If your child goes there you need to be very clear about what the educational program is going to involve. That program has a history of out of control classrooms with little learning and low expectations for kids. Have you done everything privately you could? Therapy, mess, tutoring, family counseling, in-home counseling? Ask to observe for more than a few minutes. Ask for current parents who can talk to you. Look at test scores online at VA Dept of Ed. If your child truly can't survive in the current placement or is not safe, that's one thing. But be sure all supports at current school have been exhausted. Has there been an IEP with weekly counseling, a point sheet, built in breaks, opportunities for movement, small group instruction, social skill groups? This special ed center should be a last resort. It has a poor reputation. [/quote]
