[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have a kid at Nora currently. I don’t know if my DC can be successful in college. I do know that DC would not be able to graduate from high school without a supportive setting like Nora, and without a high school diploma, there’s no chance college will be in the picture. I am sorry OP that your DC was not well served at Nora. It is a collection of kids who have unique issues and it’s so hard to know if you are doing the right thing at each stage. [/quote] This has been our experience too. I don't know if my child's academics would be appreciably different at a specialized SN school -- our experience with SN schools is that their expectations are significantly below grade level, so I doubt it. But I do know that the confidence my child is developing at Nora -- that she wasn't able to develop at either public school or mainstream private -- will make her more likely to succeed at college. If she struggled academically at college, it will be because of her profile/learning disabilities, not because of Nora.[/quote]
