[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you not homeschooling your child? This child sounds like a perfect candidate for homeschooling. With homeschooling, you can opt out of testing and work around the child's schedule. I graduated a child who was often sickly through homeschooling. Child is currently in a university program that accommodates the child's situation. I have two other kids in MCPS but MCPS is not for every child. It just didn't work for this particular child. [/quote] Why is OP not homeschooling her child? Because by law, the state is required to offer a Free Appropriate Public Education, regardless of disability. Homeschooling shifts the burden of education to the parent and not the state to provide. I’m happy if you chose to homeschool your child, but I hope you have enough self-awareness to recognize the place of privilege that choice comes from. [/quote]
