my son went to otzar and now he is at eis lasos. I am hoping to have him next year in a regular yeshive. he is now 3 years old.
his problem seems to be addhd-not diagnossed yet.

Thank you Chany. These are all in NYC? What a great thing to have actual choices, even if only 1 school is right for a particular child. Those of us OOT dream of such a situation! Good luck with your son and your educational plans.

Thanks for the great list. Could you or someone who has experience with the schools please explain a bit what the focus of each school is and how they are different from each other?

ps I work for yeled vyalda. it's not necessarily a special ed school. the early and regular head starts are all regular ed. they do have therapists and an ABA program, though.
