[quote=Anonymous]Has she been a social worker in these schools, or other schools? In these schools then she knows what she’s talking about. If not, her poor past and earlier work experience clouds her judgment. I went to one of the best public school districts in the US (top ten in USNWR) and my kid goes to a good public school in Virginia. I noticed a difference between my school and his - mine was much better and essentially functioned like a private school (when I look back now), and his is pretty good and doesn’t have the disruptions that are mentioned here, as aides are assigned in inclusive classes that have mainstreamed kids with behavioral issues. So I have no hesitation with my kid in public school. If I came from or lived in a part of the country where most middle class and above expect to put their kids in private  then I would have too because in those communities that’s where the “regular” schools are. You have to look out for your own kids. My kid has some SN, but he is highly functioning and no behavioral issues. I want my kid to get services, but I wouldn’t want him taking all the oxygen out of the classroom either, so I get it. There’s not a ton of options for the kids with more serious issues.[/quote]
