[quote=Anonymous]OP here - yes DD is special needs w severe ADHD, anxiety, and sensory integration issues. she was in DCPS through middle of third and we then moved her to private for smaller classes when DCPS denied renewal of IEP during triennial because academics were fine. Academics have not been the primary issue - its the other w/respect to attn. anxiety and social emotional. Needs to be somewhere w/some flexibility w need for breaks, movement, and your pretty standard ADHD and anxiety accommodations that also isn't crazy workload w/homework. Private school is a SN for above average academic with social weaknesses not mainstream environment but at this point is too small and DD is really craving a larger peer group and we think she is ready for a larger school. We are just not sure she would be okay in that large of a classroom and of course we need to enroll her by tomorrow and I feel like we just don't know enough about the school to take that leap of faith. So yes, I posted here wanting that specific insight w/regard to how the school is able to accommodate kids who might not otherwise be successful in a standard DCPS middle school. Thanks for any insight you have![/quote]
