[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One big piece of advice: don’t rush to buy right away. Even in areas with strong reputations, a school's effectiveness—especially for neurodiverse learners—can vary widely depending on the specific staff and special education (SPED) team in place that year. Things can change quickly with turnover, leadership shifts, or budget impacts. Renting gives you flexibility if the school doesn't end up being the right fit for your child, and it also gives you time to really get a feel for the community.

Also, as soon as you know your base school, reach out to them. Whether your DS currently has a 504 or an IEP—or you're not sure what’s appropriate—you'll want to check eligibility and possibly update or start the process. Each district handles ASD-1 a bit differently when it comes to accommodations and services, so initiating contact early is helpful.

this.

Also Montgomery county's schools reputation and current situation are very different. I bought here and my advice is avoid it like the plague. Look at Arlington and FCPS (and also lower taxes in VA).[/quote]
