[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You other potential option is to convince the state/county (I’m not sure- ask on the special needs board) that public school can’t meet your child’s needs and get money from them toward private school. I’m not totally sure how it works and I imagine it’s not an easy process but I know it can be done. [/quote] This is in general really hard -- only about 3% of MD students with disabilities are in non-public placements. I would be surprised if my child were that exceptionally unsuited to giant understaffed classes haha. Furthermore I have been told that the first step in getting this done as a Prince George's County resident is to move to Montgomery County. 😆 Basically I think it comes down to what a PP said above -- the public school has a much lower bar for what they consider "appropriate education" than we as parents might want for our kids.[/quote]
