[QUOTE="Deni D, post: 751226, member: 22840"] I know about the sensory overload. Lucky for us by the first grade my son was in an out of district school placement where they all knew how to keep things calm for the kids. This was a school for special needs students who where high IQ but had emotional problems. The school was paid for by the local school district because the local school district could not support my sons needs to be able to attend and pay attention. There is a law here stating all are entitled to a free and appropriate education. But for other times, like parties and such I found if we got their early before there was too much going on my son did well. By the time everything was rocking and rolling he was acclimated well enough. I wonder if they would consider doing the opposite of what they are proposing at least for the start of school. Also with my son, no structured time was a problem, recess and gym to be specific. I don't know how you handle that in a regular school district without your son feeling excluded. When we had discussions of moving my son back into the district school they wanted to put him in a conference room by himself for lunch. He never went back in district. You have and advocate, right? The advocate should be able to influence the school district. B needs a chance to thrive, no matter his limitations. I don't know anything about the laws and special needs schools in Canada so I can't offer any suggestions. [/QUOTE]
