[quote=Anonymous]   Help me understand this and see the other side. From having a child with SN we have connected with a number of other families with kids who have SN. One family we know sued for private placement and won. The father is in a field where he easily brings in well over half a million a year. They live in a mansion. They are getting free tuition paid for I assume by our tax dollars. Is there no income cap here? Also, does this mean poor families who's kids' needs cannot be met in the school have no chance of getting a private placement because they can't afford a great lawyer? Is there anything in place to help those less fortunate who have kids with SN who's needs cannot be met in public. Does the school system cut a deal with these schools so say a 60,000 a year SN private is only costing the school system $20,000?

Also, I assume our kids with SN all ready cost the school system a lot and cost varies by amount of services. Is it possible it costs the school system almost as much to educate our kids in public school as it would to send them to private school?
