Sure, FCPS is going to give thousands of kids 55k a year vouchers. Does the superintendent just hold a town hall where they announce that gen ed class size will now be set to the state limit, all specials cancelled, all after school activities cancelled, all improvements and maintenance cancelled, but impacted students with IEDs get a free ride to the SN school of their choice? I'm sure that would go over really well [/quote]

There aren't enough seats in the private contract schools NOW. Kids sit out of school for months waiting for a seat to open up at Lab, or Phillips, or APTS even when FCPS is willing to pay.

There is NO CAPACITY in the public OR quasi-private sped schools or actual private special ed school system for any of this. No classroom seats, no staff, no STs, no psychologists.

The only possible solution is direct payments to families so they can hire their own private tutors/therapists/etc. [/quote]
