[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here - thank you all SO much for your insights.  To answer some questions - [b]our inbound school is terrible[/b], so if things didn't work out we'd be looking at the lottery.  The charter we got this year is a great catch, and I only see it getting harder to win a spot.  Finances and commute can be flexible to accommodate whatever.  My gut is leaning towards the charter, while keeping fingers crossed that if my son reaches a point where he doesn't need the additional support, we'll consider other options.  We're still trying to dial down what exactly the "right" environment would be; my son gets along fine in most environments and his issues primarily manifest themselves as profound shyness.  He ends up blending well into any environment with time and is great at following rules.  But the reasons so many of you cited above are exactly why I'm just not sure if a mainstream program is right for him at this time.

Our primary concern is what's going to be best, and I think I have a much clearer picture now.  Thank you all so much!  [/quote]

Take the charter spot. It is really, really, really hard to know how he's going to do in school when you have a 3 year old. In a few years, you can switch him to the private if you think he can handle it.[/quote]
