I would very much like to relocate to northwest Ga or southwest NC. I have a child with Audio Proccessing disorder and can’t seem to find out how the teachers in the public school system there are degreed to teach ESE children. Does anyone live there or has lived there and can give me any insight on public schools in the area?
I hope someone can you give more direct answers.
All I thought of was to contact the Parent Training and Information Centers in those areas and ask to speak to an advocate. They would at least know who you could contact for more info…
The PTI in those area are
