[quote=Anonymous]My ADHD/ASD kid did most of his K-12 in MCPS, with an IEP, then a 504. Now in college. In middle school, he was part of the North Bethesda MD GTLD program (gifted, talented and learning disabled). Mainstreamed but in classes with trained teacher and paraeducators, with a dedicated resource class full of kids like him. It was WONDERFUL, mainly because the teachers were understanding. In high school, he went to Walter Johnson. The pandemic did a number on his peer socialization, from which he's only now barely recovering, as a college freshman. He became very isolated and essentially spent all his high school years doing his homework. Which got him an extremely high GPA and a dozen APs, so good for college admissions! But zero friends. There was no bullying and the IEP teams in both schools were excellent and always ready to cater to his needs. [/quote]
