Hi I am Kris, mom to Jennifer and I have heard very good things about Centenial School District which is located in Lino Lakes. I know quite a few families with children with T21 in that district. Our school distict, Roseville has been good so far, but the highschool gets a bit large and I am not really excited about it. Two other districts that are supposed to be good (though I don't know from a special ed standpoint if they are good) are Mounds View and also Mahtomedi.
When looking at housing, make sure that even if you are in the town that is of the same name as the school that you truly end up in that school district. For example, some parts of Lino lakes actually go to Forest Lake school district etc. and they are supposedly, not so good.
Anyway, hope that helps! I look forward to meeting you and connecting with you in real life too! The support group that I attend is actually in Lino Lakes, really nice group. Oh, also I don't know anything about Lakeville, so I just can't help there. Connie, Elly's mom lives in the south metro, so put a post on the main board or drop her a line at: family@gotsnow.org
Best Wishes!
Kris and Jennifer 4/02 and William 5/04
