[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 503903, member: 1550"] Have you ever contacted your state's Dept. of Education? I had to do that to get proper services for Sonic. After the person in charge of special needs heard about the runaround I was getting, he called the school. I don't know what he said, but we got what we wanted the next day and my son was treated like a prince after that...lol. The Dept. of Education decides which districts get federal funding so they have power. There is also an office of civil rights. Not sure where it is in MN...in WI it is in Chicago. I called them too. I think I could feel the Special Education director shaking in his boots. THAT really mobilized him into action. Q. has a right to a free and appropriate education, and these people can help you. Be sure to mention how you were threatened. I found that working within the district is often useless...they have one another's backs, not yours. [/QUOTE]
