[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’re in the stay or go phase. Would you stay on the Hill if you had an autistic child who is in a general education classroom? Would you have confidence that DCPS, especially in late elementary school and middle school, could meet your child’s needs?

If not, where would you go in the DMV?[/quote]

That's a complex question that depends a lot on a combination of your child's profile/needs and your school placement. There's a special needs and disabilities board here on DCUM. I haven't been over in a while, but it used to be a strong, helpful group and free from much of the DCUM snark that permeates many of the other boards -- nice that even on DCUM that's the case. I'd ask them for current info. My feeling is that it's a decision space that flies below the radar of many of these other DCUM discussions on boards like this where most haven't navigated those needs. Quick answer (that another poster mentioned) is that MoCo has historically been a hotspot for those services and is worth familiarizing yourself with even if you remain in DC. Best of luck to you and your family.
