[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Private placement is meant for the most challenging of the most challenging students. A 6 year old with anxiety and ADHD, as highly impulsive as they may be, doesn't fit that bill. Not unless they're stabbing classmates with scissors every single day And even then, the school system will try everything in their power before even considering a private placement.[/quote] We have a private placement in MD and, at least there, this is not correct. Private placements occur when the needs of the student do not align with the offerings of the school system. Severity of needs has nothing to do with it. If you saw my kid out and about you would notice nothing out of the ordinary. He passes for typical in many respects and so do many of his fellow students. [/quote] Then you got lucky. 97% of the time severity absolutely has to do with it. [/quote]
