[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote]BUT WAIT, that's what ADHD does to a kid so again, not sure why any of these schools say that they accept SN kids. who do they think they're foooling?[/quote] Here, I'll tell you why: because not all 357 "special needs" are identical. They range from a child who can't hear/speak/see/toilet/walk by himself to the child who has 12% hearing loss in one ear and is otherwise 100 percent typical. And everything in between. You can grasp that I'm sure. I, for one, am glad the area offers so many options and if there a school that, say, specialized in dyslexic children and doesn't want to be Ellis Island and take all the disruptive kids, too, that's their prerogative. [/quote] Whoa!! back off lady. No need to talk down to me. I was speaking from my own perspective and experiences - of which there have been many. I have an ADHD son who presents pretty typically in that he has accompanying LDs. Applied to 4 privates, all of which claim to take SN kids but none of which would take my DS. Those on the SN board really try hard to NOT be nasty and condescending so please respect that. [/quote]
