[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The smaller class sizes. My kid is bright but not gifted. I think she would be lost in a class of 28 kids. [/quote] same poster. I also really like the lack of disruptions. This will make me sound awful to SN parents but in mcps lower grades my kid always had a child with autism in her class, she was friend’s daughter with him, but twice a week or so he would have a sensory overload and start yelling and throwing things including chairs. If the teacher and staff couldn’t calm him the class had to leave the room while he got it together. Glad we’re not dealing with that anymore. [/quote]

My daughter had this in her public middle school.  Budget cuts and parents wanting their SN kids in regular school, led to the closing of programs for these kids in our county.  Additionally staff not being able to even touch these kids when they were having these events.

I never once went to her MS and not found a child wandering the halls ignoring a staff member trying to cajole them into coming back, or throwing themselves on the floor screaming, with a special ed aid trying to talk them into getting up.  It was disconcerting as an adult to see, and my daughter reluctantly admitted to me that she found it scary.

Crucify me for saying it, but it's nice that this isn't in our private school.[/quote]
