[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We preferred sticking with public. We looked for schools that cater to students with disabilities. Our son is in the GT/LD program of MCPS (gifted, talented and learning disabled), and he's been nurtured and done well. Now he's a junior and deep in the college search, we see it's paid off, and he's as well positioned as he could possibly be, given his issues.[/quote] Me again. DS has severe ADHD and mild HFA.[/quote] This is my DS as well. In private right now but we’d live to move him back to public if he could get into this program - we are MoCo too. Was your DS in MoCo for a while before qualifying for the program or was he able to get into it from the beginning?[/quote] Not PP. Does your child have an IEP? If so, reach out to appropriate GTLD program regarding ability to move into GTLD. We balanced the GTLD vs CES at one point. I vaguely remember that we contacted the school and made an appointment after answering a couple of questions posed by the school secretary. We were told during tour that DC could move in to the GTLD mid-year if need be. There are GTLD programs at elementary, middle and high school. They may not be conveniently located for everyone, however. [/quote]
