[quote=Anonymous]OP, you can still get speech, OT, etc. from the public school system even if you go to Catholic school.  They are mandated to serve every child who has these needs.   The only problem is you have to get them to the school to have these services.  My mother used to pick my youngest sister up from Catholic school once a week, drive her to the public where she got speech therapy (and then drive her back?  I don't know if this was the end of the day or what.  I do recall my mom always trying to schedule it for something she considered "extraneous" like during her regular p.e. period.)

Nowadays, I too have a child who needs speech but we have chosen to go private b/c I work and I could not do all this juggling during the daytimes.  But we did go through the Child Find process and were deemed to be eligible for the service; it's just that we declined it.  We could have accepted it if we wanted to.  They do not care what school you go to.  They have to serve the entire population.[/quote]
