Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 My son is attending a typical preK. He has a 1:1 shadow, but we've worked hard to keep her on the " down low " with the other families, making her to appear as a classroom aide. We are considering keeping him at this school (parochial) next year. I often tell other parents he has SLP at our local public school, but haven't told anyone about his diagnosis. However, he has a twin brother and I am very open about his autism diagnosis, as he is in special education. If you have been in this situation, I am looking for advice. Is it better to be forthcoming to help explain those oddities that sometimes set him apart from the other children, or have you found this to back fire? I want him to have a fair shot going forward, and I don't know if revealing his diagnosis will help or hinder him. PS. The school administration is fully aware of his diagnosis.
