[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I am not sure why this should matter, as I have paid taxes in dc for more than 20 years to support DCPS. But, let me explain things to the trolls (silly me). My family HAS tapped out all of our resources spending tuition on a very moderatly priced parochial school. Our DC was placed in a DCPS school, very she was subject and witness to violent bullying, in part due to her dissability. We asked the school to move her to a different class, and DCPS told us to go screw b/c our expectations for safety were "unrealustic." I'm talking bruises, hair pulled out in handfulls, pushing down stairs, etc. Our pediatrician recommended we pull our D/C out of DCPS for fear of long-term damage to her education. Our insurance will not pay one red cent of therapy, which costs $125 per hour. Just so you have the facts.[/quote]

Hhmm, OP, I'm quite sure we know each other, though I have not previously chimed in on this thread.  Signed mother of SN child "whose hair was pulled out in handfuls."  FYI: that was a bad year, indeed, but this past one was MUCH better (with the same DCPS)....

Sorry to hear about this issue.  Hope the new school is working out.[/quote]
