[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The intersection between people who need a SN high school and people who can afford 50k a year may not be enough to justify additional schools. [/quote] I think OP's other issue is that the kid isn't behind academically, which can make some of the local schools a bad fit. Objectively, though, we've got a ton of special education schools in the area compared to most places. I grew up somewhere where the nearest private school with any kind of autism program was hours away, meanwhile we've got [b]Kennedy Krieger, Ivymount, Katherine Thomas, Foundations, and Phillips[/b] all of which serve students with autism. It's not perfect, but it's hard to call that a lack.[/quote] +1. We have an abundance of choices locally. They may not be a perfect fit and every school always has room for improvement but we certainly do not lack options in this area.[/quote]
