[quote=Anonymous]We are looking at the possibly of moving to DC from NYC for a job opportunity. We are very familiar with DC, but have zero experience navigating the school system there, especially for kids with learning challenges. Our three year old son is autistic and is in an inclusion pre-K class in a public school, where he could continue on in ICT classes all the way up. NYC just seems to have really good systems in place and lots of options for autistic kids. Is DC similar or is it more limited in these types of classrooms? For those of you who have experience with NYC and DC, are there any programs like ASD Nest or schools like the Children's School? And if so, which parts of DC are they in? Are there after school programs that are inclusive? Overall does it feel like a supportive place to be neurodivergent? Any and all advice welcome![/quote]
