[quote=Anonymous]I am not from FX county, but my child has mild to moderate hearing loss in both ears and got hearing aids at age 4, (he was on the borderline).
He didn't even have anything in his IEP until he got the hearing aids about hearing loss. That being said, he went to a MCPS preschool
for kids with physical disabilities and their typical peers at age 3 and did fine. At age 4, he got summer school with the MCPS system 
to help him adjust to his (new) hearing aids. And at age 4 he went to both the preschool for kids with physical disabilities and a regular typical preschool (morning program and afternoon program).  So he did fine.  He gets to see a DHOH teacher once a month.  He didn't talk until he was 3, but he has more issues than just hearing loss.

We could have gone to the MCPS preschool for kids with hearing loss, but that was not his major issue and we were happy with the school he was in.

In MC you can get transient services, so is that a possiblitiy in a regular preschool?[/quote]
