[quote=Anonymous]Yup, I don't see public being a great fit. And what you say about the other private school doesn't really fill me with confidence either, plus the distance... Are there any private schools you could look into that have more suitable EF and social programming for him? Because sometimes mainstream privates will say what you want to hear, but they don't actually have staff with the right skill set to meet your son's needs. And if it's a poor fit and things go badly and they decide they want you to leave, that could be quite upsetting for your son (and you). I would see if you can stay at your current school for another year and find ways to improve the academics. And work hard in therapy on accepting "difference" and EF and social skills. Honestly I would rather have him enter 9th grade having mastered those things than having learned academic content. Because academic content can be made up more easily.[/quote]
