[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The kids we have met from dcps at various schools my dc (private placed via fcps) had attended all had emotional-behavioral challenges as well as autism.

The schools suck. Much worse then a public school in every way-except they are staffed for behaviors. Its not like they are sending your kid to Sidwell. [/quote]

It couldn’t be worse than my kids experience in a self contained class in DCPS. First year, no certified teacher from August-February. It was run by the aide. This past year, no children in the classroom were allowed to attend lunch, recess or specials with their same age peers.  Not because of child behavior but because the teacher didn’t want to do it.  My child hasn’t met their iep goals for two years straight.

I’m not even bringing up the fact that there was no OT for 4 months and no speech for 2 months.

I understand you are coming from Fairfax, but let’s not pretend that DCPS is some great placement. I firmly believe Ivymount, KTS, Kennedy Krieger etc are better placements. [/quote]
