[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are in private now and just qualified for an IEP in 2nd grade.  My son's private is doing alot of intervention and we pay for tutoring as well.  I know people who say why pay for private and still have to pay for tutoring.  My concern is giving up our private spot and end up in a situation where we forget it.  We played the lottery and matched Ludlow Taylor but that would be 2-5 grade, concerned for middle and really thinking about staying private. [/quote]

Special education at Ludlow is terrible.  If you can afford it, stay private. They didn't have a speech therapist for 3 months while she on maternity leave and no staff for push-in/push-out so the IEP for kids last year was pretty useless.[/quote]

This isn’t totally correct. They were definitely short SN staff this year, but they do have 2 resource staff + 2 ELA Coaches/interventionists who operate mostly via pull outs. For kids with actual IEPs other than speech, hours have been met; it’s really kids with 504s / sub IEP needs who have ended up with the short end of the stick because there was a big lag in IEP assessments during the first half of the year.

What is your kid’s IEP for? Happy to share feedback on if that specialist is good and/or if staffing is a challenge there.

The 3rd grade teaching team is widely regarded as the best at the school, so that’s a plus. [/quote]
