[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is good advice. Your child sounds like he would do well in a mainstream classroom except for the [b]emotional regulation part.[/b] Public schools are terrible at handling this and tend to do crazy things like suspend kids for this type of behavior, saying they are disrupting the class. I would make sure he has an IEP NOW in Montgomery County just in case he needs to be in a more restrictive classroom just for K or start looking at places like Maddux where they will give him some room to learn how not to get upset without punishing him.

The one issue that stands out is the meltdowns and tantruming.  Most mainstream schools/classrooms will not be able to support this type of behavioral issues if they are still occurring past preschool.  I would focus on this issue and try to get help before your child goes to k.[/quote][/quote]

The problem with emotional regulation is what many posters are pointing out.  Many private SN schools and camps don't deal well with behavioral issues nevermind public schools.  Auburn and Maddux probably will not take a child with this profile.
