[quote=Anonymous]I would tell the school about the diagnosis when applying. As your child gets older the issues may become more apparent and it's better to be at a school that can meet your child's needs now and in the future. Our DS got into one of the schools on your list before we realized he had any issues but we chose a immersion language charter instead where was diagnosed as having ASD/Asperger's. His symptoms are mild enough that people don't realize he's on the spectrum. However, having supports and services have made school a really good experience for him. I would be afraid a school would not be able to provide what my child needs if they were unaware what the issues were and being upfront will tell you whether the school is willing to try to meet his needs. Good luck![/quote]
