[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why isn't the aid working with him inside of the regular classroom? I would ask the school and ABA to answer that question. The other issue with ASD kids is that once they get established in a routine (outside of group class) it's so hard to get them to be flexible and do something else (work in the group)... as least for mine.

MCPS has PEP. It was great for my ASD kid who is high functioning with a lot of anxiety and social communication deficits. They have good pre-k programs that you should not discount... especially as they are free![/quote]

They have told us they are working them on following instruction.  He does have issues with this, but nothing that would require a 1:1 audience with him in order to obtain the result.  I basically said that I would be happier if he was within the classroom more often, and they could take him out from time to time.  They agreed, but nothing has really changed.  They told me it's the best thing for him to learn to comply in the new environment....I don't know...because my kid isn't one to freak out in a new environment.  His first day at his county preschool program in January, he followed all directions AND napped.  I don't know why they feel the need to separate him as much, and basically, I am paying for school, as well as ABA, and really only getting one.  [/quote]
