My child goes to a special needs school and they are open chol hamoed. Should I send her? On one hand dc benefits from the education, and therapies. on the other hand I feel it is improper to send her during Chol Hamoed and I feel like I would be steeling her Chol Hamoed from her.

What will her feelings be?

If she's happy and comfortable there, she might enjoy the familiar routine.

If she'd rather be doing chol hamoed outings with you, and you're happy to include her, by all means cancel.

If it's family time and it's not hard to take her out with the family then I would keep her home. But if you aren't doing anything or it's hard with her I would send her.

Of course you should send her. She will be able to enjoy more in the future if she gets all the help she needs now.

If the rest of the family is doing something fun, keep her home. If nothing is going on and they are spending the day going to the supermarket with you and fighting with each other, send her.

Is it a frum school? Growing up we had school on chol hamoed. We had donuts and chocolate milk in the sukkah, did art projects, had a chaggigah, and were told stories. Wonderful memories.

Are you doing something as a family that she’d feel Excluded from? If so, keep her home. If it’s a regular day (shabbos prep? Target? Videos?) send her

It depends on the child. If she needs routine and being off schedule makes her act out, I think it's better for her if she goes to school.

So we sent her and my other dearchild fetched that they also wanted to go to school. I guess we made the right decision.
