[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your ASD DC is in a mainstream private: - When / how did you tell the school about DC's diagnose? Before or after you submit the application? - What made you decide that it was the best fit for your DC? - How has the school been providing a social support for your DC? I found that learning specialists are usually for academic support only. My DC will be applying for a first grade admission. [/quote] I'm in the minority but I would say it depends on whether you think he needs any support during the school day. If yes, agree with PPs that you should make sure it's a good fit for your child. If not, I wouldn't want the schools to come in with a bias. It's rare but know a few mainstreamed kids with ASD diagnoses who do fine in school without supports/accommodations. Hard to tell what OP's child is like from the short description.[/quote]
