[quote=Anonymous]I do not have personal experience with Lake Braddock but I am a special education teacher in the county and have heard not so great things about their sped program.  But that was about...5 or so years ago from a co-worker who had a child there but transferred him out b/c of how bad it was.  And I did hear from one other co-worker that they didn't think LBSS's sped program was that great.  But that's just two people.  Everyone's experience is different.

I do have personal experience with Robinson's sped program through a stepchild who is there and have been happy with them in general.  This year, however, I am starting to lose my cool with them over a situation involving a sped teacher who is not doing her job and a department chair who is non-existent when we try to reach out to her for assistance.  I would not write off the entire program because of this one bad experience but it's definitely starting to make me wonder...

I work at a middle school and we are consistently praised by parents for the services we provide but then we hear horror stories about the high school we feed into.

I really think it's hit or miss and despite the somewhat negative feedback I've heard regarding LBSS and my recent negative experiences with Robinson, I think you have a pretty good shot at getting decent services from either of them since, overall, they are both very good schools.[/quote]
