[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In terms of schools for your sons, it doesn't matter what neighborhood.  Moco will send your boys to the school that has the program for them no matter where you live.[/quote]

While that is theoretically true, it is difficult these days to get MCPS staff to pay attention to kids who have special needs who are not failing academically or causing major behavioral problems. OP could make it easier for a principal to accommodate their request by already living in the catchment area for the programs she thinks would be best for her kids. [/quote]

This, 100%.

Also to the PP with young adult children - unfortunately your experience is a bit out of date. Things have changed in MCPS and not for the better. Demand for sped is higher and budgets are lower. This cascades into teacher/para/SLP shortages, max class size allowable, and a fight from school admin to ration services. Newflash - high functioning ND elementary school kids get bubkus. [/quote]
