[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps talk with your attorney about the prospect of having MCPS or FCPS foot the bill for private school specializing in autism. While I don’t have firsthand experience with it, I have heard of cases in MCPS where the family establishes that the mainstream public school can’t provide the IEP support needed for an ASD student and the school system pays the tuition at specialized private school, e.g., Katherine Thomas, Ivymount, Auburn, etc. It takes legwork and potentially requires legal action, but it’s worth asking about. [/quote] Neither MCPS or FCPS will pay to send a PK child with level 2 autism to private school. A school system securing and paying or private is the absolute last resort that only happens after years of failure. That's not the starting point when entering a school system.[/quote]
