[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know anything about Lab (my kid has social rather than language issues), but on the "is it ever worth paying private tuition as opposed to public with an IEP" front I just wanted to toss in our experience for balance -- which is that we (and DS) have been MUCH happier at Maddux than we were in public school. The various accomodations and pull-out services we could negotiate in public school (after a great, and expensive, private neuropsych eval, and a helpful ed. consultant) were helpful and allowed him to keep his head above water but no comparison to having a significantly smaller class size, teachers who genuinely love this particular population of kids and know what they're doing with them, and (in some ways the most important, for the social-impairment crowd) a peer group in which DS can actually make real friends, not be teased, and not feel weird or inadequate. Just our experience, FWIW.[/quote] Where are you going after Maddux since it only goes to 2nd grade? [/quote]
