First off. the Catholic school my daughter attends and the one I want my son to go to is NOT in the same district as we live. Even if, there are rules. Rules I still DON'T understand.
If we attended a private school in the district, I would have to accept whatever time given for his services (speech and OT). They will say, OT on Tues at 12 and Speech on Wens at 2. That's how it works, my understanding is drop in services are last to be placed. I, not the school, would be responsible for transporting him to the school where he would get services (the school he attends now) for the minutes stated on the IEP (right now 60/wk). Then I, not the school district, would be responsible for getting him back to school. Lather, rinse, repeat.
Now, this gets slightly complicated since the Catholic school is out of our district. First, the IEP has to be transferred to the other district. School districts HATE this. They have to pay the school district who has your kid, so your tax money leaves the district and the district take it personally, I've been told. The district tell us when and where we'd get services. Then all the rest applies above.
However, the school that may provide services may NOT be close to his Catholic school. It could be on the other side of town, but for drop in services, we have to go where we are told.
I had hoped that his IEP would be cancelled this year, but that does look to be the case. God really is liking messing with me.
So, let the fun begin.
(yeah and really, I'd talk about things going on, but what is the point if people don't get that you cannot have directions thrown at you verbally when you learn by hands on or by reading? Or really don't care how you feel as long as you are "there" and they don't have to do your work. So done with it. Getting used to being ignored, until something is needed. Can I retire now?)
(Also, nothing like hearing MULTIPLE TIMES at the walk in clinic I CANNOT GET PREGNANT on Depakote since its a Class X drug. And can lead to a kid born with spinal defect, no brain, etc. Yeah, yeah I GET IT, REALLY! So right now, having to hide family planning supplies so Jimmy will stop paying with them.)

That makes sense. The Catholic school my girls go to is in our district, so I never questioned any of it (and honestly, not sure what the rules in CT are like anyway). Good luck with it.
We're actually not too happy with the speech that Moe is getting and are looking to see if we can get services outside of school through a private facility.
