[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 547441, member: 11791"] What kinds of accommodations and interventions do YOU think he needs? Obviously, it's not "academic assistance". Transitioning? (moving from class to class) Organization? A "safe base" if things get too overwhelming? If they are pushing for Special Education and you want mainstream, I'd be wary of asking for a full-time aide. But he may need one in the classroom who can keep an eye out for him, be a bit of an advocate, etc. (Our school usually has 2 levels of aide... 1:1, and about 1:5... the second is much easier to get!) A 1:1 aide means intensive needs... which for some schools, means they believe the child belongs in Special Education. [/QUOTE]
