[QUOTE="tryinghard, post: 126278, member: 4570"] Dreamer, Thank you so much for your input. No, the pretty much are just telling me how frustrated they are with him and his behavior. There was nothing at all in the IEP addressing this. The only thing in the IEP were academic goals. Based the Special Education teacher and prinicpal told me that he was in sixth grade and needed to start taking responsiblity or he will never make it in High School. My son just sent one of his teachers an email explaining that he did not recall how to do an assignment. The teacher must not have realized that it was my son sending the email (even though it is through a school site and it came from him not me ...his name was visable as the sender) she wrote, "I am very disappointed in (name of my son) that he did not remember this. We went over it numerous times in class" She then went on to explain what to do and the due date. My son was hurt because this is his favorite teacher and he has her for three periods. Basically I feel like my son is a thorn in their side, they do not want to do anything different to help him and they feel he is not doing what he should do. Based on others recommendations I am trying to find an advocate in my area that I can retain. He has had an IEP since first grade but I can't say he is getting any better or advancing in school. You are right, B's and C's are not bad. My biggest concerns are his standardized test results. Each year, since first grade, they have gone down. He is now in the 3rd to 6th percentile for all students in the state of California! I said to the principal I do not understand...you have to be illeterate to be at this level. All she said to me is , "I don't know what to tell you". Do you have any other pieces of advice??!!! I am desperate for anyone's insight, suggestions, and\or advice. [/QUOTE]
