[quote=Anonymous]I appreciate all the feedback and perspectives on the schools as well as some others to take a look at.

It looks like I don’t know that much about how IRPs are factored into all this (I honestly didn’t even know it factored in beyond the fact that they are legally required to honor it). With his current IFSP, he receives 3 services - SLP (2 30 min sessions a week), PT (1 30 min session a week), and ABA (5 1 hour sessions a week). The ABA therapy is basically serving as a supplement to SLP - with SLP, they are working on speech mechanics and feeding while ABA helps him with the social foundations for language - communicating needs, immitation, turn taking, etc. I want push in services like he has now for the majority of his services, so integrated classes are a top priority. Like I said earlier, he is cognitively at the same level as peers. He also doesn’t have receptive language delays and his gross motor issues aren’t super obvious or debilitating, so I don’t anticipate him needing separate classes or a highly specialized program. Just want to ensure the school has a good reputation for working with and supporting students with various special needs.

He turns 3 at the end of July, so I won’t know his full IEP recs or even what he qualifies for until the summer. I have a meeting with his coordinator soon, so I will ask how this all factors into the school process. If anyone has insight into how it factors in, personal experiences, or recommended reading on the interaction of the IEP and the lottery, it is very much appreciated.

Thanks again. [/quote]
