[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mainstream privates do not use IEPs and most will not admit a student with a known ASD diagnosis. Not the kind of  diversity they choose to pursue. Sorry, OP. I know that is not what you were hoping to hear. [/quote]

Interesting.  Is this statement made based on personal experience?  [/quote]

I ask because it contradicts what an earlier posted said based on personal experience.  And yes, I knew the point about an IEP.  Thanks.[/quote]

Yes, it is - just as you asked for in your OP. And experiences like that of the PP are why I said most mainstream privates.  Our DC is extremely bright and mildly ASD - mostly in need of social supports. We were not able to find a mainstream school that had the academics and was willing try some accommodations once they heard the diagnosis.  I included the comment about IEPs because your OP gave the impression you had asked your private preschool about an IEP in a mainstream private. [/quote]

Thanks.  I had asked the preschool if they thought he’d qualify for an IEP back when I was debating public v private.  Mind sharing where you looked and where you ended up?
