[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks. So how do private schools handle students with special needs? Do they have separate classes and separate special-ed teachers? What kinds of extra curriculars? As in more math clubs and things like? [/quote] I have two teens, one in public and one in private. They have very different needs and each found a school that’s a good fit for them. No school is perfect. The public school actually has more extra curricular activities. There are more clubs of all kinds and sports. The private school does not offer special education services, but ironically that is where my child with an IEP is attending and doing well. The academics are more rigorous than the public school but teachers give more feedback and there is more support in each class. My kid in public school is doing well with the large school and needs minimal teacher support. There are more options for classes and all of the extras. She likes going to the neighborhood high school school, the Friday night football games, all that comes with being at the local HS. [/quote]
