[quote=Anonymous]I’m a special educator in mcps and have probably seen it all by now. The connections program (high functioning former Asperger’s ) mentioned above is very good however hard to get your child placed into unless you push very hard and advocate for it. Maybe even by securing a lawyer or advocate ahead of time before your intake/ placement meeting. I have also seen a lot of kids with a similar profile to your kid do well in general education given the right supports on the iep. For middle school, if it it were my child and I were considering general education , I’d definitely want a resource class for daily check ins and all supported classes (all classes co taught ). These classes tend to be smaller and have multiple adults in the room. If you want Ot or speech therapy , see above where I mentioned to push for it at your placement meeting and get what you want at that meeting. It seems the OT department has been generally reducing services across the board in mcps[/quote]
