[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]North Bethesda has 1200 students.  In general, teachers use best practices and give whole class reminders.  Unless you have a 504 plan, that is the best you can expect from the majority of teachers.  There are a few gems who make an excellent effort to know kids on an individual level, but in a class of 30, I hate to say it, but most of the students are cogs in the machine.[/quote]

Even with a 504, we found it was largely ignored.[/quote]

I had a child go through a few years ago with a 504, and found that they expect the child to self-advocate. It's a tough ask for an anxious 13 y.o!  [/quote]

OP here. DS would struggle at advocating for himself. His teachers are working with him on speaking up more for himself and asking for help when needed. We may consider staying in private through middle although it would be a financial stretch. He has improved a lot from earlier grades so we’ll see how things improve over the next year. [/quote]
