[QUOTE="hamsterwheel, post: 21767, member: 2281"] Thank you all for responding. Originally I wanted to keep her in her current school, just moved to a different class. Even up until this. I was fighting their decision to remove her from the school. I consulted her therapist who also believed it would be best for my difficult child to be placed in a special needs school. I still did not agree and refused to sign the papers. But as this situation worsens, I believe it would be best for her to leave the school and start new. This has been going on for years in the home. The administration has known of her issues, mostly because they're the ones who called child protective services numerous times. The teachers and students have such a tainted view of her now, she does not stand a chance to be forgiven. There have been parents involved and have instructed their children to "stay away" from her. Both difficult child and myself have been told this. My difficult child does not have any friends and she is very social. I need to give her a chance to start new. She is working very hard to gain control over her emotions, but unfortunately with children forbidden to play with her, it's become another trigger with a new side effect. Worthlessness. She is often singled out when something goes wrong in class, even if she's had nothing to do with it. My questions are what are the proper procedures for dealing with a situation like this? She has been evaluated by the child study team & been given a 504. Is this the IEP? A member of the child study team suggested having her evaluated but the social worker said it was not necessary since she's had one already, not through them. I had this done several years ago. They decided at that meeting to classify her as emotionally disturbed and it would be best to place her in a special needs school. The subject was barely touched on how to help her, just remove her. The social workers exact words were, "If I could get her out of here tomorrow, I would" I would like to get her back into school. I believe they suspended her unfairly. I plan on calling the superintendent tomorrow, followed by a letter. My only problem is do I have a leg to stand on? How do I convince them to reverse their decision and allow her back into school? What is the child study team's responsibility? I do not know what questions I should ask or how to hold them responsible for difficult child's education. I've been to the state's Dept of Education site, but it is vague. Please point me in the right direction. Thank you again for the help. I'd be even more lost without this site. [/QUOTE]
