[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in the same boat of trying To navigate the least awful option.   Our local public is really terrible but shelling out $40K for Lab, which is marginally better, is rough.  Lab, on paper is ideal for our child's mild Language based LD but we are not impressed.   Hopefully, we'll get one of the few, coveted slots at one of the other schools.  Last year we were wait listed, so it was really a matter of high applicant volume.  [/quote]

Ugh....didn't want to hear this.  Do you mind telling us which of the schools have "few, coveted slots...." and where there are currently wait-lists?

This will determine what we do in the Fall. stay at our MoCo public or apply to private - which would mean a lot of emotional investment, not to mention time and money due to having to update educational testing at the rate of $3500!!

TIA![/quote]

Not PP, but Lab will probably have a wait list.  It's tough to get into to, especially the older grades.

If your looking for a school that addresses language based LDs for middle and high school, in addition to Lab, you can apply to Commonwealth (VA) Siena, Jemicy, (MD) or Kingsbury (DC).  The Chelsea School is a MS that deals with language based LDs.  You could also look at McLean in MD which has a middle and h.s.

Those are pretty much your options and deadlines for most schools are January.  If you're in doubt, you can apply and see what the public school will give you in terms of support.  But I urge to tour and get your own impressions of the schools.[/quote]
