[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here's the information about LEAP: http://hespclinic.umd.edu/leap-preschool.html

It's run by UMD, but not part of the IEP process (that is, you apply, go, and pay for it yourself, without the county's involvement).[/quote]

It is through the U of MD Speech Pathology school.  It has a director who is an SLP and they have student SLP's who run the preschool.  Each child is given 30 minutes private speech therapy, good evaluations and much more.  Its very affordable and they have a sliding fee if needed.  They also have a speech clinic for speech therapy that is much cheaper than private.  We had very good luck.  A few the the students were ok, some bad (we never got those but other parents complained about a few) but most were great.  But, my kid liked speech therapy and always worked at it so no matter who he was with he was fine.  It really prepared my child for the next school and it was an easy transition.  You can do LEAP and PEP, some parents did, but we didn't and did private speech and activities in the afternoon.  At some point, you need to find a balance and not under-do-it or over-do-it.

But, despite what others say on here, not all kids have other disorders or learning issues.[/quote]
