I must change my review
I must change my review. My son is autistic. We did public from k-4th grade. Too many reasons to say why, we changed to homeschool and choose FTA. From 5th grade to 8th grade it was the best experience we could have asked for. The teachers took into account the IEP he had in public schools and worked well with him. Now in 9th grade he is struggling. They tell me now I have to go back to the public schools to get him a IEP then they will follow it. I am a Speech Language Pathologist, so I am very capable, and have before, in writing an IEP. They refuse to work with me, therefore it is taking him a solid year (no summer) to complete this grade. I used to recommend this school to everyone. If your child is special needs do not go to this school.

We requested additional information from the reviewer to confirm they attended the school. Without that information, we cannot verify enrollment or speak to the specific situation. Although we do not write IEP's, we will honor an existing IEP created by another school district. Review of the IEP is done prior to enrollment to ensure we are able to meet the accommodations. In good faith, we may make accommodations while we await receipt of the IEP. If an IEP is not received, accommodations will be rescinded.
