[quote=Anonymous]We kept fighting public school and eventually won what he needs there (day by day, but by bit, ttrying to work colaboratively). Plus, we supplemented at home quite a bit, hired tutors and therapists. For us, there was no private school that matched DC's mix of deficits and assets. Lab came the closest, but still wasn't really better than public- we would have traded what we did at home with what the school provided. 2nd, 3rd, 5th and 7th grade were the hardest. We seem to be on a good role in 9th. Have a school that finally gets it off the bat (thank you to the parents ahead of us), middle school was the worst in "getting it", ES needed to learn, but was open to learning. ES is now regarded as a good school for kids like DC, so we feel like our time there had some long lasting benefit. Good luck and I hope you are able to find what works for you and your family.[/quote]
