Willow,
I can totally understand your concerns. I would feel the same way. I agree that you just need to really watch the pros and cons. I would keep a very close eye on what is going on. If her meds are getting leveled out, she may be ready for more mainstreaming. I was wondering about that anyway, when you said that she was doing well. I just think that the programs are so different in every district that you have to really know what yours is offering. I still think that alot of Sage's problem last year had to do with a new teacher, uncooperative administration and medication issues. (that is alot to overcome!!) I also think that if she is getting what she needs, this could be great for her. What Lurks school is giving sounds perfect, but you are just going to have to evaluate yours. ykwim? The self-esteem this year may be better for her than what else she could be getting.?? Hang in there. GO OBSERVE!! You can tell so much from that!
love ya!!
