[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 234270, member: 1233"] Does the school offer a preschool for kids with problems? Our schools offer preschool starting at age 3 or 4. It is an amazing program, truly awesome. Kids even get IEP's that young if needed. It is targeted to children with problems or the potential to have problems and it is FREE. The school may also have a year between kdg and 1st grade. I know a few of my youngest son's friends were in this "between" class simply because they were not ready for 1st grade. And it is also a great program (partly because we have an excellent Education Dept at the local University and they help out and partly because we just have amazing teachers). Go to the school and ASK how they can accomodate your son. When we moved here my difficult child was older but was homeschooled. we homeschooled because the teachers at the local school were emotionally abusing my difficult child. And we couldn't afford private school - and most wouldn't take him anyway. I went to the school in April and explained what we were dealing with, that we wanted to enroll him but needed to know what supports they could offer. It truly was one of the best years of his life at school. Anyway, it can't hurt to ASK the local school what they have to offer. [/QUOTE]
