[quote=Anonymous]Kids with disclosed autism will not be admitted even to most SN privates. Some students are grandfathered in for financial or diversity reasons in the past few years when the diagnosis is given after the student has attended the school for at least a year, but this is a new approach. Faculty oppose it. Diagnoses should not ever be disclosed to private schools. Only the specific accommodations required should be given to the school. That is the only information they need to determine if they can accommodate the student or not. Disclosing diagnoses just engenders shunning and discrimination. And if your DC is rejected or counseled out, consider your family fortunate. It's worse when they spend all year allowing the teachers to exclude the DC so that you will withdraw voluntarily.[/quote]
