[quote=Anonymous]I have a 2.5 yo son with cerebral palsy. His delays are strictly physical and is typically developing in all other areas. He's aging out of the infants and toddlers program and we've been given little idea of what kind of program he may qualify for next year. My understanding is that the PEP programs specialize in helping with cognitive delays, behavior issues, speech delays, etc.  The only pre-K program I've heard about (from this forum!) is the Orthopedic handicapped program at Forest Knolls Elementary and Judith Resnick Elementary. I called to director to speak with her and she told me that the 3 y.o. program at Forest Knolls is already full for next year and that there isn't a 3 year old program at Judith Resnick due to "lack of interest". She said that even if there was room at Forest Knolls we live too far upcounty (Montgomery Village) for the transportation system to bring him down to Silver Spring. I'm thinking that I must be getting bad information. My son will obviously be considered at least 25% delayed in gross motor skills (can't walk without his walker) so he [i]should[/i] qualify for services right? We have yet to have our transition meeting with the infants & toddlers program due to continuous school closings/delays, etc.  Oh and to further complicate things, he has a typically developing twin brother. Is there an inclusive program out there that would be a good fit for my family? [/quote]
