[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No private except a SN school will be tolerant.  An IEP takes a few months.  Its easiest if you have a private evaluation and submit it.[/quote]

It isn't so much about a private SN school being tolerant, but rather they will know how best to educate and help children with whatever diagnosis they have.

That said, they will want to see an independent evaluation so they can get a sense of whether they can help the child before accepting him as a student. [/quote]

[b]SN schools don't conduct an evaluation to see if a kid would be a good fit[/b].  As a parent you apply which generally means submitting recent evaluations.  If a school is considering your kid, they may ask the child to visit for part of the school day.

Um, yes, many of them do just that. They observe the child at their current placement, or the child visits the potential new school for a visit to see if they will be a good match, etc.  Plenty of schools do this.  I have toured my fair share of places in the DC area, and this is not uncommon. [/quote]
