College prep schools and programs for LD students

Submitted by an LD OnLine user on

In Central Florida, the Vanguard School of Lake Wales is a special school strictly for students grades 6-12 who have mild to moderate learning disabilities. The school prepares them fully for college life and beyond, and offers a broad range of services and extracurriculars that build students’ self-esteem. The school is very effective for students with conditions ranging from Aspergers Autism to dyslexia/dysgraphia. My question for parents is this: If you’re not sending your LD student to a school like Vanguard, how are you preparing them to participate in our future global economy? I am particularly interested in any homeschooling programs that might be used for this purpose.
