[quote=Anonymous]We went with Option #2 (private with tutoring). I think the ideal is a specialized school but the closest one was too far away for a reasonable commute (think 2 hours in traffic). We had tried public and had an IEP, but enforcing it was a full time job and DC was picked on by teachers and peers and very isolated. The resource room was helpful but more than she needed, but she would get nothing in the classroom. She only improved her tutoring with outside tutoring that we paid for. If we were paying for tutoring anyway, we figured we might as well get the smaller class sizes, etc. in private. We chose a very small private. They were flexible in allowing us to do specialized tutoring online during the block when other kids were taking Spanish (my DD tried Spanish and it did not go well). Honestly, best decision we ever made. If I had it to do over, I probably would have sucked up the commute (2 hours each way) for a few years, but I had to work to pay for it and it all seemed impossible at the time.[/quote]
