[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DS is 6 yrs old, starting first grade, has an IEP in Fairfax county. Has a diagnosis of Asperger's, very good academically, public school is good, but are there any private schools in VA that can further his academic potential, while working on his social/language skills. [/quote] We shifted out of private which was not helping HFA DS and went thru Fairfax High Schools with an IEP. worked beautifully and DS is off to college but you are going to have to fight for that IEP. DS didn't present as an Aspie but got the necessary xtra help to deal with homework and anything else arising out of HFA, Anxiety issues and ADHD. We did not try lower schools in fairfax County so I cannot speak to that, but High School went well with the IEP. Too much homework. Too many nights of going to bed after midnight and catching the bus in the dark to be in his seat by 7:10 a.m., but we did make it through and got into a fine college.[/quote]
