i never sign at the mtg. i always take it home and re-read it. last yr they didn't include his one on one in the iep and i only caught that when i got home. the principle at our home sd told 2 moms i know that they had to sign that day or it wouldn't get implemented. bold faced lie! you...

i think it would be great and as long as hippa is followed it is no different then getting any other blood test results in my humble opinion.

great for him! praying that he keeps it together!

i was in your boat this time last yr. yes you can ask(in writing) for a behavior assesment and a behavior plan. that should be part of the iep and make sure it is in there before you sign the iep. do not sign that iep until you take it home and read it over no matter what they say to you...

hi it has been awhile. my difficult child is in his first yr in an ei classroom and thriving! sure there have been bumps but he is being pulled to the regular 2nd grade class for science 2/wk and now they want to have him go for 45mins every day adding social studies. we now have to redo his iep...

i was talking to my easy child's former dance aid who is a student teacher is k-garten class. she was told that it is district policy not to test this age group even if the teachers suspect emotional impairment. :censored:? sorry but that is exactly why my difficult child didn't get anything more than the school...

ok so could someone break this down for me. i am not quite sure what the final outcome was. too much legal stuff for my head, lol!

well at last wks psychiatrist appointment my son thru the chairs around, tore the box of tissues up and pushed her panic button several times after being told to stop. all this after 10 mins of chasing him around the bldg to even get him in her room. don't ask me what set him off but he told his therapist...

that is great that you got a deal especially with- a high rx and titanium. being in the business i just would caution that you get polycarbonate lenses for kids as they are the safest. also you need the pupil distance(pd) measurement for proper optical center and i don't see how you can get a...

marg's repsonse made me think of something. in the us the idea 2004 talks about each child being treated as an individual and accomdations being made to the childs individuality but the biggest problem i find in my sd is that they lump Special Education into one mold(ie. behaviour problem, reading...

i think it is a great letter. some much in you letter sounded like issues we had last yr. staff not diffusing but exaserbating situations and not restraining properly. it is so nice this yr to be in a special program where they know how to deal with-kids like ours!

reading all of these responses has made me feel a lot better. i knew we were doing the right thing but when you are stepping into the unknow sometimes it helps to hear from those who have been there! thanks so much!

we are waiting to see if this will be an issue. at the transitional iep from our sd to the resd i raised this as one of my main concerns. when i asked what i should do to prepare him for school next yr they said have him practice sitting for long periods of time. he had a hard time with-the 20...

my 6 yr son will be starting in a similar program in the fall. it was a hard decision for us also as he is a twin, be on a schedule 1 hr off from his sister's and have an hour long bus ride. i got to visit the class for the older kids and had the head of the program spend 2 hrs giving me the...

i guess i am kinda get tired of people saying the diagnosis really isn't BiPolar (BP) because it seems to be the diagnosis of the day. maybe it is the diagnosis of the day because it went so long with-Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP) not even being considered. there are still those out there that do not believe BiPolar (BP) exists until the teen yrs. maybe as...

that sounds great! my difficult child starts a similar program next yr for lower elem.

michelle i am so glad! now i would call the msemp because they were the ones who coordinated the time and date between me and the school. i'm with-sheila on the disbelief of 'we don't test'. keep us up to date on how things are going!

i wouldn't have taken it bad and would have understood what you meant. hopefully the GAL understood also.

michelle did you see my reply to your other post. contact Cause for an advocate and Michigan Special Education Mediation Program(MSEMP) for a mediator. we just had a mediator at our IEP tues as a facillitator and boy was it nice to have an outside 3rd party who knew their stuff!

i know cuz i am the 'pta pres 06/07' that was written earlier but removed after my phone calls to the 2 people who claim they have nothing to do with-the site. not only that but in the last few days i have had 3 people come up and ask me "so 'difficult child' is going to xxxx schools next yr' and i wondered...
