[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They are glad their kids are finally getting educated too, not just the outliers. If you’re not happy for them cut them off.[/quote]

Op here. I am happy for them that they are happy and if public wasn't a fit for their kids, good for them for finding something that is.

But I think it borders on chumpish for me to let someone basically say that I am satisfied with my kids getting an inferior education. My one child would likely not be welcome at a parochial school because he has SN.[/quote]

I don’t know your child’s special needs, but don’t assume they would not be welcome. There are a lot of IEPs at our Catholic school. The archdiocese started a program to include and support children with Downs Syndrome in Catholic schools. But as with a lot of Catholic schools,[b] there are fewer resource teachers [/b]or teachers equipped to help as well as public schools can. But it doesn’t follow that they are unwelcome. [/quote]

dp I think what the pp means by "welcome" is able to meet your child's needs.  If they can't support the child and don't help than basically they are 'unwelcome' at the school.  Not that the school is actually saying don't come.  But if they can't meet basic needs than why should you pay all that money?[/quote]
