[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Virtual school was completely unhelpful for my DC. Have a strong aversion to online support services. Virtual school taught him how to manipulate Lexus and the iPad to work in his favor and make it look like he knew how to spell etc, while he just made the iPad work for him.

Really I was just hoping to get a baseline understand of what is being offered across the county and use that to shape my advocacy.

Our DC has a 504 for adhd though the pediatrician described it as quite mild. He bas always struggled with academics and we had him tested/evaluated and everything came back in the normal range with no learning disabilities.

He really just does best with focused small group or individual support. We do this at home but we also work full time and have another child. Also, it was APS decision to close for as long as they did during Covid—not mine—they can go ahead and use their funding and support kids with academic recovery like other districts are doing.

I get you are frustrated and feel this goes back to COVID and it is APS responsibility to help your child and you want to advocate for that. In the meantime, if you can afford it, you should hire a tutor. Don’t let your child keep falling further behind to prove a point.[/quote]
