[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Since this thread has been revived -- OP, what ended up happening with your child?[/quote]

OP here.

Since this thread, it's been a rollercoaster. I'll try to sum it up in a timeline:

5/1/11 - Son started at Beers ES - neighborhood school
Summer '11 - Son attended ESY at Walker Jones for 4 weeks. then received compensatory ed in the form of ABA therapy for 4 weeks at home
August '11 - December '11 - Attended Tyler ES
October '11 - IEP Meeting to discuss appropriate classroom placement and inclusion options - 300 min/month of inclusion time added to IEP
December '11 - Son was bullied in classroom. Husband and I removed him immediately. Called meeting to discuss matters. School officials made light of the issue - said that "kids just rough-house each other"
December '11 - Had son reevaluated. Independent psych eval done. ASD ruled out. Psychologist recommended gen ed with dedicated aide
Jan '12 - IEP meeting. DCPS proposed Developmental Delay classification instead of ASD. Husband and I refused, and retained lawyers thereafter.
May'12 - IEP meeting. DCPS is still under the belief that son would benefit most from an Autism classroom, even though he does not fit the classification. Offered to have psychologists at Early Stages reevaluate him to rule out Autism. Husband and I accepted the offer. As a result of reevaluation, psychologist rules out autism, and agrees that son should be in an inclusion setting full-time with behavioral supports. IEP meeting to be scheduled before end of school year.
