[quote=Anonymous]There was a really excellent post the other day on Mcneeds that cautioned about relying too much on what other parents say about a particular school for a SN child. Given the individual issues of each child, a school may be a perfect fit for one child but a disaster for another with a similar diagnosis. That is why talking to the schools and visiting is so important.  I have visited many of the schools and with the two my SN has attended, knew immediately that it was going to be a fit.  With others, I couldn't get out of there fast enough. But I know people who have loved those schools -- I just knew they weren't right for my dc.  I would look a the list of schools on the exceptional schools fair website. It is pretty comprehensive.  Then I would start making appointments and calling the admissions directors. They are typically very helpful and forthcoming.  Off the top of my head, I would recommend you look at Lab, McLean, Diener, Newton and Auburn. Potentially Maddux (sp?) depending on the age of your dc. There may be others on the list I'm not remembering.Good luck.[/quote]
