[quote=Anonymous]This is part serious question and part vent -- by why are all of the private schools for kids with HFA or even ASD in faraway suburbs? We're beginning to explore middle school options for our child with HFA, who's presently well-placed in a DCPS school. But I feel like we can't even consider private school, since the mainstream ones wouldn't take her, and the SN ones are all too far away from DC to be feasible. Yes, we could move, but that would uproot other kids who are happy and doing well, and make our commutes miserable. We're also by the way at a loss for summer camp, since the few SN camps in DC are all for super young kids, and driving out Rockville or some such place is also unfeasible. Why are there so few resources in DC proper? Vent over.[/quote]
