Hi, we are considering to relocate to Portland area from Massachessett, we live in a nice suburb close to Boston with top rating school system.
Our son is on an extansive IEP and how was wondering how is the special education in
Cape Elizabeth, Scarborough or South Portland.
Our son will be in Middle school next year.
Thank you

Aren't there federal laws governing special education services and IEPs? Can a school system refuse to offer services...under threat of lawsuits?

My wife is a retired special education director. Special ed is supposed to be quite uniform coast to coast. In reality, it varies a lot. All the towns mentioned above are very good because all those towns are quite prosperous compared to Maine as a whole.
