Help finding a school in Augusta, GA...

Yes, he is currently going to an Occupational Therapist through the school system. Grades 6-12 won't help for my son, though (he is 5 years old, Kindergarten this year). We ended up sending him to a charter school in a town about 20 min from here. It is small, and brand new, so they are still struggling to find a place for him. The special ed teacher is nice, and cares a lot about his well being I think, but they seem pretty unorganized. They are a brand new school, and I'm sure trying to find their way somewhat this first year, but I am having trouble even getting a lesson plan out of anyone! My son is very smart, he just has sensory issues and can't sit still. They refused to put him in gen ed because he wouldn't sit still for them or be quiet, but then they don't really have a dedicated special ed room for him either. Right now he spends most of his day with the special ed teacher and one other student. He goes for little bits of time with the Kindergarten class in gen ed for several activities, but most of his day is one on one with the special ed teacher. He seems to like it so far, but I am concerned that I can't seem to get a straight answer about what the lesson plan for him is. I worry that it is really just a daycare for him and he's not really getting an education. I have explained to her that he can read a little bit already, but so far they have been only working on ONE LETTER per WEEK. They do read books focusing on that letter, write that letter, etc., but I feel as though this isn't enough. He knows his letters already, and what sounds they make. He needs to be READING. My son has an excellent memory and remembers everything. They need to utilize that strength and build on it. I am hoping that she will step it up a bit and start teaching him more, the way HE learns. I am trying to be patient, especially knowing that this is a brand new school, but I am having a hard time when I suspect the issue may be affecting his overall education. Sorry for the rant! I just don't understand why she's moving so slow when he is clearly capable of learning new things at this point...I will investigate the Olive Tree Academy for the future though, thank you for the information! :)
