[quote=Anonymous]NYC private SN parent: upfront costs to get private neuropsych eval and private top psychiatrist and entry into a private SN school was hugely expensive. Then we hired an education to sue for reimbursement from the school district for said private SN school. BUT. Because NYS DOE reimburses approximately 100 percent for private SN schools it was absolutely worth the upfront expenses (which were not insignificant). I don't know what you mean in general by advocate because our NP suggested schools for us (we are spoiled for choice in NYC) and we sent NPs to all of them and toured those who considered DC a possible fit. In general, unfortunately, throwing money and lots of us at SN children for doctors, education, attorneys etc. is unavoidable and I am a frugal, careful person. But it paid off in spades. DC has been in the system since K and is now mostly remediated in academics and is functioning well socially (DX: language based LDs and ADHD). GL to you.[/quote]
