[quote=Anonymous]In my experience, they try to be upfront, but I also think that it can be hard for them to know without understanding your child's full profile, just like for any applicant. Some ASD kids would do great in a particular setting, and others would struggle. It is a spectrum, as we all know, and which areas kids struggle or succeed in vary a lot between individuals. We had one school say that they did not generally think kids with SN were a good fit for them. It was a little offensive (since we are looking there for our other kid who is NT), but I also appreciated the honesty because they really don't feel they can do a good job of supporting kids with different needs. Other schools asked us to apply and see how he fit in. Maybe they would review a neuropsych ahead and talk with you about the chances of the kid fitting or not.[/quote]
