[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

Thanks for the info. My daughter tests age-appropriate for language and so does not qualify for an IEP here in Idaho. I was told the same by Montgomery County, and expect that will be the same elsewhere unless the school district will provide a preschool spot simply due to her hearing loss.

Yes, if we go with Gallaudet I'd use some of the $ saved to have her in private speech and hopefully find someone great for both kids' aftercare - maybe a student studying speech therapy or something.

Bridges and Arlington Cty are new ideas for me - thank you! Camelot ES sounds great  - I've read their website - but the commute is much too long. Top of my priority list is to have 30 min or less commute. Really too bad Camelot is not closer in.

The River School is the perfect fit for both girls, just need a wealthy sponsor   :? [/quote]

I'm the SLP from the old thread (and just posted about Gallaudet).  Since you don't have an IEP, you may have trouble getting any services at this age, definitely in MOCO.  If Gallaudet would take you, then I would definitely go with that, at least for age 3.  You can always switch next year when you try the lottery or get sibling preference due to your older daughter.  Gallaudet would keep you relatively in the neighborhood. [/quote]
