Re: homeschool and therapy

[Guest guest]

Carol, is your son in an out of district school or public school?The reason I

ask is that if he is in an out of district school you could argue to the town

that a home program that they paid for supplmented by therapies, could be

cheaper or equivalent in price to what you are getting and would they at

least give it a chance.

Also, if your child has any medical/health issues and you can get your doctor

to support you on it, you could argue that this is a good reason for the home

program.

I am going to start hippo therapy in Sept which will be billed as speech

since the instructor is an slp. So, insurance will pay 80percent. Perhaps you

could have it billed as Ot or pt and the same with swimming. Also, if your

child has low tone, you could have your pt/ot recommend swimming be included

in the iep.

Feel free to email me direct if you desire, Carolyn aigjr@...
