[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are no schools that will take kids with social emotional needs that includes aggression (I know that as it was my child). For my own child, I stuck it out with public but kept fighting LRE arguing that they were not meeting it if they were constantly asking me to pick up my child. He is now thriving at RICA, which is a therapeutic day school paid for by the county. If there is aggression, you will need to stick with public and fight to have your child’s needs met.[/quote]

Similar experience with the private schools. we are not in MCPS so we don't have experience with RICA. Our DC had a couple of incidents of aggression at school that were considered "minor". When we reached out to the Diener school, they indicated it was unlikely that our DC would be accepted and they needed a few additional neuropsychological evaluations which DC had recently completed. We gave up on the private school search. hired an education advocate, got an IEP with additional services and interventions through the public health. This worked out for the best because the tuition at the private school would have been a financial hardship but we were desperate. It's a difficult situation. [/quote]
