[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our experience was pretty positive. Accommodations were made and they seem to be working. I was in touch with another parent going through the same thing... But she stopped talking about it, at least to me. I didn't know her personally... Maybe you are her. Ssma was miles more responsive than the highly regarded dcps we attended before it. But I will say, just by virtue of their size right now--there's stuff they don't have. When we were first going through the assessment, I was concerned about the lack of school nurse, school counselor, psych, etc. But the dcps that had all of that didn't do anything for us--despite repeated requests. I know (now) I had a legal right to more services; but at the time, we didn't know anything and it was rough.[/quote] Size of school doesn't necessarily mean a school doesn't have a psychologist or other specialists available (psychologist, SLP, OT) although they may not be full-time employees.
