[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn’t move for this reason alone. My child had apraxia which is a serious motor speech disorder. It also affected his coordination. He got the bare minimum in MCPS schools. We had to do a lot of intensive private therapies. They gave him a language class for 1/2 day I think 3 days a week. The speech therapy provided wasn’t even appropriate for apraxia. It was so stressful for him that I had to pull him out. They next gave him 1x a week group speech for the remainder of preschool. And that was all he got in K and 1st as well. No other services. Now if your child is diagnosed with ASD, you may have better results. MCPS seems to provide much better services for kids with autism from what other parents have shared. I know you mentioned public pre-K in DC specifically so maybe it is better there. But don’t move to MCPS thinking it will be great. [/quote]
