[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have been in SN parent groups long enough to tell you that Waldorf is always a disaster with SN kids, and Montessori often is, though kids with certain profiles may do okay. The more common experience though, is that it doesn’t work out. You really want a school that will be warm, provide kids with enough structure and support (even in a play based setting), and be clear and explicit about rules and expectations. Ask your SLP or other therapists what preschools they like. I feel like a good teacher is the main thing, more than the school overall. Good luck![/quote] In our experience, it did not work out. Too unstructured and DC did not really engage or get the support needed to learn basic preschool skills for K, so we switched. Not sure where you are but in DC consider St. Columba's or NCRC.[/quote]
