[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [quote] We will apply to schools in NYC where we are moving: Collegiate, Horace Mann, Dalton, Trinity, Browning, Columbia Grammar, Fieldston, and Buckley. DS has legacy status at one and we don't need financial aid. [/quote] OP, I daresay that you sound like a snob who cares more about the name brand of the school your child goes to than actually helping your child get a good education. Public schools are the best place for a child with these issues, because they have staff who are trained to handle them. It's time to accept that you have a child with a disability, and that they are on a different path. ---mom of a child with ASD [/quote] DS has had a diagnosis and IEP since he was 4 yrs old and attends a public school. We are looking at these schools for 6th grade and his psych and neuropsych think these schools or a public magnet will work for DS... So yeah, we accept DS has a disability but also strengths. LOL![/quote]
