[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 584782, member: 84"] Well, truth is often hard to take. But at least they're allowing her credit for a lower English course. Him not having info in how she is doing in her other courses just goes to show the amount of actual "caring" going on in the school. Real concern and he'd have had that info ready for you, knowing it would be your question. We ran into a snag in Travis' Senior year as well. Seems the school allowed him to take Geometry without ever having passed algebra. He passed Geometry with an A, followed that with the next math class......sorry mind has decided to draw a blank.........and passed it with an A. He failed that algebra class back as a freshman. duh I'd said something when they approved the geometry class.....oh, no, he's fine they said. phht Then they decided that he somehow didn't have enough English.......when drama counts as an english class........blah blah blah In the end I pulled out my ace in the hole. Here no child with an IEP can be prevented from graduating. (got that info from his counselor at the tech school) Suddenly everyone was super cooperative and things were juggled around and accepted as the credits they should be. That whole algebra deal was THEIR fault, not ours. They wanted to toss out the credits for the geometry and the 2nd math class because he hadn't passed the algebra. Uh, no, don't think so. Substituting drama for a reg english class had also been their idea as Travis has severe issues with language ect. So again? No. So he graduated. On the honor roll. Get your questions answered. Then? Call up the state school board and make sure they're doing what they're supposed to be doing. Hugs [/QUOTE]
