Anyone have experience/opinions on Hopkins Preschool in the Berkeley public school system? We will be moving to the area this summer and our son (turning 3 in June) is eligible for special education. He had expressive language and fine motor skills delays. He continues to have attention to task/sensory integration issues. His current teacher believes his next placement should include regular exposure to normally developing peers, but should still be a smaller classroom. Thanks!

We were at Hopkins for my son who had special needs at the time and it was a sweet little school. The grounds were nice, the teacher was good. My son always enjoyed going to school and I was grateful for the range of support he received for speech and OT.

Regarding Preschool for child with developmental delays
You didn't say if you are in Berkeley or not. Hopkins Street Preschool is a public preschool with excellent options for kids with developmental delays. They have a great special ed. class as well as "full inclusion" classes where the special needs child is in the classroom with "normal" kids. Children need to be three years old to enter the school. I'm not sure at what stage in the game your child would need to be evaluated for the program. You could contact the Berkeley Public Schools Office and they would hook you up with the right people. Good luck! Sara
