We are a group of friends who have come together because we share the common bond of caring for someone who has Trisomy 21. We are here to share therapy tips, medical issues, laughs, accomplishments and yes, even frustrations. We embrace what Trisomy 21 has brought into our lives. We feel that it has taught us to appreciate the true meaning of life. We count our children as blessings! We will fiercely protect them and fight for their lives to be valued just as all other peoples' are. We share our pictures, our stories and our hearts here not only to provide friendship and support for each other, but also in the hopes that others will open their minds and their hearts to our unique children and, in turn, make a better world for everyone.

Other Options of Schooling? What is the school districts' responsibility?

So, say we can't work out a spot for Johnny and I choose to just look into other programs for him. We have a large variety of private, Catholic, Christian, and certified Montessori schools in our area/surrounding areas.

What are our options and what responsibility will the school district have regarding that? Paying for therapy? Paying for an aide? Paying tuition? If we go every painful route of TRYING to work with the public school system to get him into a pre-school that is best for him (LRE) and it's not working out to come to an agreement where can I send him? I really don't want his education to be delayed with their stall tactics. He's already past his 3rd b-day and there is not even an IEP yet.
