[quote=Anonymous]What comes to mind is the Bridge program in MCPS.  That will require placement by the MCPS IEP team.  No idea how your current IEP would translate to what MCPS looks for with placement.

My MS is in Bridge.  They have their own suite within the comprehensive school.  Classes are very structured and small.  The kids are cohorted together.  There is a social worker within the suite.  Kids are at or above grade level.  One MS elective is replaced with Resource---I don't know about all the MS programs but at our school, Resource has a defined agenda for each day of the week.  ie Monday is review grade book; Tuesday is plan for upcoming homework/tests; Wed is writing emails and asking teachers for help, etc.  The resource class is explicitly teaching exec functioning skills that will be needed in HS.

The kids eat lunch together and have their other elective and PE together.  If a kid wants to take a mainstream course and the team feels that they can be successful, they are able to do so.[/quote]
