[quote=Anonymous]My child attends private and I would say she started PreK with 3 boys who fit a similar profile. By first grade, they had all left. In older grades, it didn't work any better. I realize that the smaller environment and the idea that private schools might be better about social/emotional curriculum make them appealing and make parents think that with those supports in place that it will be enough combined with outside help. The reality is that the majority of students are NT with higher than average learning abilities and some behavior challenges that can be redirected by the teacher and a child who doesn't fit that mold sticks out - quite a bit. in such a small environment, that one child that doesn't fit the mold gets labeled as the child who doesn't fit the mold and it's hard to get past that.
