[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Just about every private school in the older grades, k and above not preschool, has a "shadow" requirement as part of the application process. OP can visit the schools and have her child "try out" a day and see how it goes. There is no way she is going to be able to "hide" the diagnosis. Be upfront.[/quote] I don't know about that. There are a few kids on the spectrum that I've met who can definitely blend in very well in the classroom and even at recess for a half day or even a full day. You'd have to watch them really closely for a week to see the ASD behaviors but they are there.[/quote]
