Dear Hilary,
Sorry in the late responce. I had a house guest for
12 days and getting my life back in order and getting
to all the emails. I don't know of any schools in
your area but didn't know if you thought of
homeschooling? That is what I do and you can fit his
needs better. I take my son to get help for the OT
and speech and work with him at home on his lessons.
This is just a thought. You can email me if you wish
to talk more.
Blessings,
Tara
