[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First time private school applicant question—My DS had a full neuropsychological assessment last year and receives accommodations. Some schools ask for the report—how much of it do I share? [/quote]
You should share all of it. Be upfront with your child's needs/accommodations. If not, you may be disappointed when the school can't/won't meet your child's needs. It will just be frustrating for everyone, especially your child.[/quote]

When my first child was going through the application I had a friend whose child received accommodations. We had a long chat about if it would work against the child in the application process. I was of the mind to disclose as little as possible.

Fast forward 8 years and my then baby, now MS receives accommodations.  I was her to receive the best education FOR HER, which means the school has to be willing to work with us.  If they aren’t willing then I don’t want to spend the $50k+/yr[/quote]

Her receiving the best education doesn't mean you have to share a bunch of irrelevant info, though.  Protecting their privacy is taking care of your child.  Just recently a mom in FFX received a bunch of private information accidentally from Fairfax county and put it (redacted) on a website.  Several kids from our school were in there, with redacted names, but identifiable.

Protect your information.  Share if needed for care.
