Set Up for Success
How to help your differently-abled child thrive in school
BY NEW YORK FAMILY
Good communication between parents and teachers is key to every child’s success—but it’s essential when your child has a learning difference. Staying informed, maintaining open communication, and helping your child feel empowered can make the school year smoother and more rewarding for everyone involved. Here are some tips on how to set your child up for success.
1. Know Your Rights—and Speak Up Parents are entitled to clear information about special education services and supports. Understanding these rights helps you advocate confidently for your child. When attending meetings—such as the Committee on Special Education (CSE), annual reviews, or parent-teacher conferences—don’t hesitate to ask questions if something isn’t clear. Staying informed puts you and your child in the
best position to ensure their needs are met.
2. Keep Communication Flowing Regular, honest communication with your child’s teachers makes a huge difference. Long Island co-teachers Kathy Devine and Emily Cole emphasize that parents of students with special needs should stay in close contact. “We like to know early if something changes at home—like a new medication or a shift in routine,” Cole says. Devine adds, “If your child is struggling with homework, let us know right away instead of waiting until the end of the trimester.”
Write a short letter to your child’s teacher at the start of the school year describing their strengths, challenges, and what strategies work best. It helps teachers understand your child as an individual from day one.
3. Understand IEP Goals
Take time to learn your child’s Individual-
ized Education Plan (IEP) goals and how they differ from general classroom goals. It’s normal for students to progress differently across these areas, but knowing what each set of goals measures will help you track growth more accurately—and celebrate progress in all forms.
4. Involve Your Child in the Process
Encouraging your child to participate in discussions about their learning plan can build confidence and self-advocacy skills. Cassie Reilly, a Transition Coordinator at a Long Island high school, suggests involving children in IEP meetings when possible. “Being open with kids about their diagnosis helps them see that their learning difference doesn’t define them,” she says. It’s about giving them a voice in their own education.
5. Embrace Your Child’s Unique Path
Every child’s journey looks different. Reilly notes that children may behave or perform differently at school than at home, and that’s okay. Success might not always follow a typical path—but with ongoing communication and understanding, parents and teachers can work together to find what works best for each child.
Why Some Families Turn to Private Schools for Learning Differences
For children with ADHD, dyslexia, autism, or anxiety, personalized instruction can unlock success
BY TARA LUSTBERG
For many New York–area families, choosing the right school is rarely simple. But when a child has learning differences, whether it’s ADHD, dyslexia, autism, or anxiety, that search can feel overwhelming. Even in districts with strong special education programs, parents often find that large class sizes, limited resources, and inconsistent support make it difficult for their child to thrive. That leads some to the realization of exploring private schools explicitly designed for students who learn differently.
Despite dedicated teachers’ good intentions and hard work, resources are stretched thin within the NYC public school system. Classrooms include students with a wide range of educational needs, and individualized attention can be difficult — if not impossible — to sustain. When a student’s needs aren’t fully met in a traditional classroom environment, some parents begin exploring alternative options for neurodiverse learners, like schools that center their teaching philosophy on how each child learns best.
A Tailored Approach
Private schools that specialize in learning differences take a different approach to classroom instruction. Unlike traditional schools that expect neurodiverse students to adapt to conventional learning methods, specialized schools design their curricula around each student’s unique needs. This individualized model may mean breaking lessons into shorter, more manageable steps, using multisensory techniques, pacing instruction according to the individual’s needs, and measuring progress by growth rather than standardized benchmarks.
These schools often maintain small classes — sometimes with fewer than 10 students per teacher — allowing teachers to devote more one-on-one time to each child
to familiarize themselves with their interests, abilities, and challenges. For children who struggle with attention or anxiety, the quieter, more predictable environment can reduce stress and improve focus.
Focus on Emotional Well-Being
Often, these schools place a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning and executive functioning skills, which help students manage frustration, stay organized, and advocate for themselves. Instead of viewing behavioral differences as disruptions, teachers are trained to recognize how overstimulation and frustration manifest and respond to help students refocus and regulate.
This can be transformative for a student who has gone from falling behind or feeling misunderstood to being engaged, capable, and confident. The feeling of belonging rather than feeling singled out can be as valuable as the curriculum itself.
Navigating the Path—and the Price
For many families, moving from public to private school can be complicated. When a public school cannot adequately meet a child’s needs, some parents look to private
schools for tuition coverage through the city’s Department of Education (DOE) reimbursement process. However, this process can be lengthy and often requires legal advocacy, documentation, persistence, and time.
But, while tuition costs are high, families who are able to make the investment (or effort of pursuing reimbursement) say it is worth it for their child’s long-term confidence and well-being.
Lessons for Every Classroom
In classrooms where individuality is embraced, mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, and emotional well-being is seen as essential to success, children who once struggled to fit in finally begin to flourish. The lessons from these specialized environments could inspire all public and private schools to rethink how they support the diverse ways children learn.
As awareness and understanding of neurodiversity grow, more families and educators are recognizing that traditional learning doesn’t work for every student. For many, finding the right school isn’t just about academics—it’s about helping their child discover their strengths, build selfesteem, and rediscover the joy of learning.
Choosing a Caregiver for My Special Needs Child
A mother shares her comprehensive approach to interviewing, vetting, and preparing caregivers for her autistic son
BY DANA GREENBERG
My son has autism, so when I need to leave him with a babysitter, I’m incredibly picky about who that person will be. A dozen worries run through my head: Who can I trust with him, especially since he has limited verbal skills? Will the sitter understand his wants and needs? Will he be happy and engaged while I’m gone? Over the years, I’ve developed a system for choosing babysitters that has worked well for us. Here’s how.
Where to Find Babysitters
There are some great places you might not have considered. I contact local specialeducation schools and therapy centers; social workers, psychologists, teachers, and therapists are excellent resources. Tell them exactly the type of person you seek and describe your child’s age and needs. Many staff members are looking for extra work, and these programs often circulate caregiving opportunities internally. A big advantage: these candidates frequently already have background checks or fingerprinting done by their employers.
Referrals from other parents of children with special needs are also invaluable. Other parents know what to ask and can give honest feedback about whether someone would be a good fit.
Meet as Many Candidates as Possible
I like to meet as many potential sitters as possible. Different personalities work for various situations. I have sitters I prefer for at-home care and others I want to bring on outings. And life happens — you need backups. It’s not unusual to call several people before getting a yes, so build a list of trusted candidates.
The Initial Interview
I meet new candidates alone, without my son present. He has strong receptive language, and I don’t like to discuss him in front of him. In that first meeting, I shared
everything: routines, likes and dislikes, what bowl he prefers for snacks, and that he likes ice cubes in his water — every detail matters. I also cover pay and invite candidates to ask questions. This meeting helps me decide whether to move forward.
Checking References
After the initial interviews, I always check the references of those I’m seriously considering — past families, supervisors, or coworkers. Have your questions ready and ask about interactions with children, handling difficult situations, punctuality, and reliability. You should feel free and comfortable to ask anything; after all, this is your child’s welfare we are talking about. Ask specific questions about the candidate’s interactions with children, how they’ve handled certain situations, and the like. I always like to ask about punctuality, too. This is the opportunity to get a feel for whether this person may be the right fit and if you want to continue moving along with them.
Introducing Your Child
Assuming the references check out, I will schedule a meeting between the candidate and my child at home. I will prepare my son in advance by telling him the person’s name and that they are coming over to see where
he lives and what he likes to play with. I show the potential caregiver around my home, pointing out where my son likes to hang out, where his favorite snacks are, and going over routines in detail. Watching how they interact gives me a strong sense of whether they’re a good match.
Joining us for an Outing
If I am hiring a sitter to take my son out, I invite them on an outing first. Being outside requires different skills: safety vigilance, managing unexpected behaviors, and staying calm if he won’t hold a hand or chases birds. I guide them through the outing and ask how they would handle particular scenarios.
Assessing the Sitter’s Commute
Where a sitter lives is important to me. Just because you are identifying candidates via a school or center does not necessarily mean they live nearby. I confirm that candidates can reliably get to and from my apartment independently and understand travel time. You don’t want to scramble to pick someone up or drop them off late at night.
Every question matters, and no detail is too small. Make lists, check references, and do what it takes to put your mind at ease — when you know your child is in the right hands, you can go out and truly relax.
Special Needs Legal Advocate
Blending legal expertise and personal experience to guide families through the special education process with empathy, advocacy, and community commitment
When families face the challenges of navigating the special education system, having a trusted advocate can make all the difference. For Tara Fappiano, Advocate and Mediator, the work is deeply personal. Based in White Plains, Fappiano brings her professional expertise and her lived experience as the parent of a neurodiverse son to every case she takes on.
Fappiano spent much of her career as a successful insurance defense litigator, but in 2019, she made a deliberate pivot. Recognizing the fulfillment she found in advocating for her son and supporting other families, she founded her solo practice to combine her legal background with her passion for education advocacy.
“My philosophy is always to resolve disputes as quickly as possible so that students can get back on the path to
academic success,” she explains. With empathy, compassion, and finely honed negotiation and conflict resolution skills, she works closely with families to ensure children receive the resources and support they need.
Her impact extends well beyond her practice. Fappiano has long been dedicated to community service, from leading PTA initiatives to bring disability awareness programs into schools, to serving as Vice Chair of the Board of Volunteer New York!, which connects nonprofits with vital resources across Westchester, Rockland, and Putnam counties. She is also active in the legal community, co-chairing the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee of the Westchester County Bar Association and volunteering as a mediator in Bronx County Supreme Court.
Outside of her professional and volunteer commitments, Fappiano is a dedicated yogi, a theater enthusiast and former participant, and a Carnegie Hall singer. A longtime Tuckahoe resident, she treasures time with her family and beloved blind rescue dog.
Fappiano’s combination of professional expertise and personal understanding offers both guidance and hope for families seeking a partner in advocacy.
