Abstract: | Children with moderate learning disabilities often fail to qualify for special education programs in public schools, but are
ill-suited for placement in private schools concerned with the severely disabled. Parents of such children may place their
hopes in the promises of private teachers or clinics. Yet the quality of services provided in the private sector varies widely.
This paper describes a model program against which parents and private service providers can measure the strengths and weaknesses
of the programs they are concerned with. The model places special emphasis on thorough evaluation, frequent reevaluation,
staff accountability, program flexibility, and recognition of the parents’ role in the child’s education. |
