Be cautious. Do not move into a high tax county if you have a child who struggles with any type of “non visible” condition & will need a compassionate school administration to help w/a a plan for academic success. We pay high taxes in this district & get very little help w/a success plan for our child. We have met with the school administration consistently (I schedule regular meetings) & have offered our suggestions base on countless hours of research & meetings with our child’s care team. We have been discouraged by the school in creating an IEP. We aren’t the experts in academics & try to balance what advice the administration has with what our attorney has suggested (inquired w/our attorney after the school threatened filing truancy against our family due to our child’s absences; which are tied to the medical condition). Our child has a long history of high grades (A-B student) within this district. Only this year has been a struggle & the administration is not helping us. It’s truly heartbreaking. The worst is watching our child feel abandoned by the school. This only exasperates the situation.
