[quote=Anonymous]I have also heard great things about New Jersey. My advice - you are playing the long game. Find an advocate who can help advise in a collaborative way. Some advocates are very aggressive - some families need that given their child's needs OR the situation where they are with the school. But early on - you are learning together in supporting your child's needs. In DC - the teachers and schools are not stable enough to say that X school has a strong program. Because they have it for 3 years and someone from central office comes in and decides to change things and it goes away. So everyone has a story of a school that worked for their child. I know a handful of kids who have what used to be called High Functioning Autism who graduated from DCPS and went on to be successful in college. [/quote]
