Today I am happy to announce that Wyatt will be attending Pingree it is a private school for autistic children. He will be attending in fall on a trial basis, to see if he shows any improvement. The dr did say that Wyatt takes first place on having the most severe sensory issues he has seen in his 40 yrs of diagnosing children.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi Bonnie, No the school is in Salt Lake City, UT. It was named after the lady that fought hard to get better programs for autistic children. Subject: schooling To: polymicrogyria Date: Tuesday, May 17, 2011, 3:42 PM  Hi, As you all know I have had a really hard time finding a school for Wyatt.

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi , Thanks, I'm happy but scared because the school said that they have never taken on such a disabled child before... (g-tube, wheelchair, risk of aspirating, seizures, vision problems, etc) and according to all of their testing Wyatt tested at a level of 0-3 months. They were not going to give Wyatt the slot because the dr said that it should go to a child that they know will actually benefit from it. That's why they are giving Wyatt a 2 month trial period. So now here I sit hoping that come fall they will see that my son belongs in their school. That he can make gains when placed in the enviorment.
