The Kohler School...

Dear Nicky,

Today we went down the mountain to take a look at this school as a potential pre-school placement for you. I've got to say the facility was top-notch, modern and very clean. It was roomy and well designed. There were many compelling aspects to it, that's for sure. However, ultimately, I don't think it's the right place for you. See, the T21 population is a small percentage there, while the rest of the kids have autism, PDD, or CP. Now, one might say that exposure to the variety of behavioral models might be stimulating, but I believe the lack of homogeneity makes for too unfocused a learning environment. At Stones, everyone is taught the same way because everyone learns the same way. The other school was a lovely facility, though, and it makes this decision very hard.

Love,
Dad
