[quote=Anonymous]MCPS has autism and Asperger's programs. Depending on your child's needs, they also have the GT/LD program (gifted, talented and learning disabled), which welcomes a lot of ADHD/HFA kids. We've been very happy with MCPS and GT/LD. I suggest you do your research to see which program fits your child best, and move inbounds for one of those clusters that offer it. If the houses there are too expensive or not on your commute route or otherwise feasible, you can move close by, then during the IEP meetings, request that your child enroll in one of them. They will be bused to that school. We live just outside the cluster that my son goes to, and we wished our other neurotypical kids could also attend that cluster, because it's actually better overall than the one we live in. However, we love our house/neighborhood and don't want to move! [/quote]
