Can you put your child in PPCD for 2 days if it is a 5day program?

[Guest guest]

Hi

I was talking to a friend who works in the school system and is

somewhat familiar with the process to get children services through

the school system. I told her the school has a PPCD 5-day program

that is 1/2 day each day, and I don't want to put my child in a 5-day

program. I would prefer 2 days. He is 3.5 and pretty mild in his

disorder. I homeschool my oldest, so it goes against my schooling

philosophy as well. She said that she *thinks* I can still put him in

for 2-days a week, but they won't tell me I can do that because they

don't want to advertise it....and they would make less $$$ with him

being in less time.

Has anyone done this or know if this is true? Just trying to figure

out my rights with the school system. We live in Texas.

Thanks!

I live in Oregon and my son goes to a preschool, and I know I wanted him to go

as many days a week as possible and the school wanted to start at 2 days a week.

I think it depends on the child, the parents and the school. If you want you

child to go a set number of days, they should comply with it.
