Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 My daughter has PDD and is high functioning. She has been main-streamed in public school since kindergarten and is now in 8th grade. She has an Aide with her all day. Difficult making friends because of extremely immature socially. I am very concerned about public high school next year for my daughter. I would like recommendations for private schools in the Broward area that deals with ASD children. She is on a Diploma track now but is having more and more difficulty keeping up with the classes. Thanks so Much!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 My personal experience has always been a visit & tour to the different schools that may be good for your child. Seeing a “class or a school in action” helps to know if the school would be right for her.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2010 Report Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hello , If your daughter has been enrolled in a public school here in FL (and it sounds like it) then she would qualify for a McKay Scholarship. Regardless of whether you use McKay or not their directory of participating schools includes almost all private schools that would cater to a DD student. You can search by County here: http://www.floridaschoolchoice.org/Information/PrivateSchoolDirectory/Default.as\ px?prgmtype=2 Steve Moyer > > > > My daughter has PDD and is high functioning.
