[QUOTE="Cin, post: 651438, member: 18874"] Hi there, I am new here and looking for information. I am raising my 6 year old granddaughter. I suspect her mother did meth while pregnant. My granddaughter is a very bright, outgoing child. She is in first grade and has had a lot of issues at school this year, Starting with a teacher that violated boundaries (probing Vanessa about her mom), among other things. She was finally moved to another classroom. She started getting in trouble a lot when her mom came around and is now considered a behavior problem. I attended a "parent Teacher conference" with this week, and was shocked when the principal,the reading teacher and the Special Education contact came in and we had a meeting about how poorly Vanessa is doing in school and they want to evaluate her for Special Education. This meeting took place in the classroom with my granddaughter not far away, at a table in the same classroom. She was distraught when we left after hearing "that she is at a level 0" I am livid that they did this with her in the room and that I was never informed that she was even on the radar for Special Education. I feel I was lied to at every parent teacher conference about her true performance. I had no idea she was testing so far below grade average in reading and nothing has ever even been mentioned about math. She was placed in Title 1 Reading intervention last year and I had no idea. Is this normal??? I don't even know where to start. [/QUOTE]
