[quote=Anonymous]Maddux is NOT mainstream. It's far far from the mainstream. It has 12-14 kids in a class with 2-4 teachers at a time depending on what is going on. The classes are highly structured (they don't look like a typical elem school). There are not typical kids in the classes. i think the poster was trying to get a sense of what is out there. No harm done. There are many programs and all kids are different and so are the families. Maddux is very expensive so are many private schools. Maddux does not offer financial aide which can be a hardship. Maddux uses a general ed curriculum and I believe they are certified as an early childhood center. They don't need to deal with IEP's (they don't accept them and they don't work with them). The staff will help families who transition to the public school draft one but that's as involved as it gets. Maddux is not for every child or every family. Some families have gone there and left after a year. All places have their issues. Are there private schools that can serve students with special needs those without? Are there small private schools that have worked well for some children with special needs? Maybe not. But I think this is all the OP wanted to know.[/quote]
