[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 2E DS got an IEP only after we hired an advocate - it was a very contentious process unfortunately.  ES was great (GT/LD program), but now that he's in MS it has fallen apart.  We are pulling him next year for private.

Our DC was in MCPS and got an IEP for GT/LD.  Unfortunately, we thought the elementary didn't know how to teach DC, despite the IEP, and we placed DC privately.  DC has made great progress at the MS, but it is unlikely that we can manage the tuition for private school for more than a couple of years, and we were hoping that we could bring DC back to public school for middle school.  We hope that DC can self-advocate more when older, and that we will be able to support DC with private tutoring outside of school.

Can you elaborate on why MS has "fallen apart"?  Did your DC go to a MS with any special support for GT/LD kids or is he/she at your home middle school?  What kind of private did you select -- one specifically for special needs or a private school with more generic support for 2E and smaller class sizes or something else?
