[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP. Say more. Do you mean that by being in a larger school they can ‘blend in’ or not be ‘seen’ as easily and therefor not be judged to the same degree? My worry would be the cons that come with larger environments- less 1:1 teacher instruction, more chaos outside of classes, less supervision regarding behavior outside and inside classes.[/quote]

just because our kids have SN does not mean they cannot adapt and be resilient.  and yes, at a bigger school (especially public) there is more ability to blend in, more different types of kids, and more tolerant admins and teachers. Our worse SN school experiences have been with teachers that fancy themselves “nurturing” but are actually unable to handle any challenges. I would never advocate for a kid to be removed from a school they are thriving in just for some theoretical better setting (be it larger or smaller) but I also don’t think it is wise to undersell our kids. particularly if their academic needs could be served better at one school over the other.
