I get that you have a spot at a desirable charter, but he does not have to be in school until K. With all the developmental delays, why not just wait? It might be better for him in the long run.

I'd prefer to wait, but we were advised to play the lottery at PK3 because he had a better chance of getting in. Also, his developmental delays are mostly speech -- I think attending school will help immensely.[/quote]

he is not going to get teased, and if you give up this spot now, you won't have another shot at it.  Send him to school, prepare yourself for some accidents and issues through Winter break, and ride it out.  Many won't help with #2, but your kid will likely be able to clean himself up, with some guidance.  My kid had a couple of #2 accidents -- it really seems daunting to you now, but honestly, this will all be a distant memory by the time the school year is over.

Do your research now about your rights.  http://dcps.dc.gov/node/1137836
DCPS policy clearly states that children do not have to be fully potty trained to attend school.
