[quote=Anonymous]Genuine Waldorf schools are few and far between around here. And yes, I think your SLP is right on. What is it that appeals to you about Montessori and Waldorf? It sounds like what you want is something more play-based, but not student-led, and with the benefits that you get in a public school like an IEP and push-in speech therapy. If you could find a private Waldorf or Montessori that would accept him, you'd be giving up the rights that he has in the public system, and you'd also probably have to pay separately for a 1:1 aide, for speech therapy, for whatever else he turns out to need. And if the school won't implement therapies during the day then you'll have to jam therapy into the afternoons and weekends, which makes for a stressful and expensive lifestyle. [/quote]
