[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]4 hours a day for specialized sped instruction is going to be $300/day minimum. (Assuming rates are discounted for volume of hours—usually around here it’s $100/hour). You’re probably looking at least $50k per school year.

You’ll do better to supplement what public school is able to do (and hire a lawyer/advocate to maximize supports at school if needed)[/quote]

Thank you for responding, can I ask where you got the rate quotes?

My math was based on Wyzeant rates for Sped teachers (generally $60/hr), 180 instructional days, 4 hrs each day, no volume discount, working out to ~43K, which is exactly what some of SN-light schools are charging in DMV. [/quote]

Are wyzant teachers any good? Are they available during the day? Is your kid capable of sitting in front of a screen for that much time? If you're at work, will he be home alone?

$60 am hour is way less than we've paid for high quality tutors. I suspect you get what you pay for.[/quote]
