[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should we hire someone to assist us? What happens in AAp if they have behavioral issues or social issues? We aren’t hitting or throwing chairs - but once.  A week he is difficult w a teacher (doesn’t like the group project, doesn’t like the game in PE)  or he gets involved in some disagreement among peers. Does the IEP address stuff like that? I’m so nervous he’ll be alone on the playground w no friends (he does have three at private)[/quote]

There is nothing that an IEP can do to help him have friends at lunch. On the other hand, he is more likely to find similar kids in AAP and avoid exclusion that way. He can't be removed from an AAP classroom for the behavior that you describe, but that doesn't mean that it won't frustrate other children. [/quote]

IME our public school was a lot more active in helping DC with social issues than our private. They, and I assumed it was because they dealt with a wider range of kids, would really work with other kids to include DC in various settings. They also had a social skills class in elementary school that involved a whole bunch of kids and was pretty fun, so I hear. Private was not equiped for this.[/quote]
