[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]APS gets a lot of criticism for its special education services, but I'm not sure it's all deserved. I know of two cases in the past few years where people who were unhappy with the special education services in APS elementary schools that get particular heat here moved to other counties in part because they thought special education would be better. One family now has their kids in private school and the other family is homeschooling because the services they got in those other systems were actually worse than APS. None of that means APS gets it all right, but I don't know of any school systems that get it all right when it comes to special education.[/quote]
Agree we moved from FCPS to APS while the system is not perfect I do think its better than FCPS. In FCPS they changed my kid SN pre school without telling me and I only knew when the new teacher emailed me. The new bus ride was 40 minutes and then they complained that my kid misbehave in the bus. We couldn't get them to a dress the root causes of the issues instead they added hours for someone to be with him. APS had been much better for us, while its not perfect, they listens, communicates well and I got all the services my kid need so far.[/quote]

Can you tell us which school you are happy at within APS?[/quote]
