Needs:
Academically appropriate program, commensurate with D's abilities (refer to test results, esp. re: math). Should be in position for Algebra in 7th grade, if possible. Will need significant language arts support, especially writing.
Social integration: social skills support in an environment geared toward AS kids. Mainstreaming as much as possible.
Means:
Dedicated AS class if at all possible. Should we allow ED placement if other falls through? Other SDC (not AS, not ED) placements not acceptable.
Other: No summer school.
Options: aides? outplacement (is that even feasible? should ask)
Long-term goals: academic success, integration into mainstream.
