[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you share more about your experience there? [/quote] I'm the OP. It's been a while since we were there, but we loved it because it made my child feel safe and loved, despite her anxiety and difficulties with social cognition. We also liked that it embedded a social curriculum into everything and that it met each kid where they were academically. We liked that it was able to serve a range of students, so that everyone was a role model for some things and needed to learn from others for other things. And not least important, it gave me a community of parents who understood our parenting challenges, as we were figuring out what it meant to have an autistic child. After leaving Maddux, kids went to a whole range of schools -- public with 504 or IEP, specialized programs in public school, SN privates, mainstream privates. The kids are now in high school, and of the families I'm still in touch with (about half the class), our kids still have a range of strengths and support needs.[/quote]
