[quote=Anonymous]There's been some very good advice already. I would only add a few things having gone through this recently with a kindergartner who's now happily in a NT private school and had a similar profile in preschool. One is that the dysregulation at home for us was essentially an early warning system that even though things seemed okay at school, our kid was probaby hanging on by a thread and just couldn't keep it together anymore by the time they got home; hence the dysregulation. So they actually needed more support in school than they were getting. The second is that when you're looking at NT private schools, be sure to find out about whether the administrators are open to working with OTs and speech therapists. It's such a common need now among all kinds of kids (especially little ones) that it's arguably a best practice and what you'd want for any child, ND or not. We hired an educational consultant to identify schools that have that reputation since it's not everyone unfortunately. You may be able to manage just doing your own tours and asking. But better to be ready in a school that you know gets it, if and when you need their support. This way no one is walking on eggsheels. [/quote]
