[Guest guest]

I asked Mics school how many kids mainstream out of ABA and this was her

response.

Several of our children go into public school. Some go

right into regular kindergarten. Some go in regular

kindergarten w/ special ed & speech services. Some go

into a special ed classroom within the district and

mainstream into the regular classroom for activities.

It all depends on several factors:

How old the child is when he/she first comes into our

program (2yrs old or 4yrs old, there's a big

difference)

How neurologically impaired the child is (it's a

spectrum, some children are more impaired than others)

How much family involvement/carry-over into the home.

(ABA is not from 9:00-2:30, it's a life style change.

What programs/support services the school districts

have to offer. (Many districts have good programs in

place, many have nothing, so the child stays w/ us)

Some children stay for a year or two because they were

not quite ready, then they go to their district).

We have about 15-20 children going into their

districts this year. I would have to look @ the list

for the exact number.
