Guest guest Posted February 23, 2000 Report Share Posted February 23, 2000 Hi, Everyone...................my heart goes out to you. We were put through the same crap at our last district. It's even scarier when they bring in top name lawyers from big cities whose only job is to back the school district who wants nothing to do with inclusive ed. Gareth would get expelled for the stupidest reasons.........he kicked AT his aide; he was growling or arguementive; he hit another child outside during recess; he wiped poop on his shirt (got it on his finger after wiping himself........this was a safety issue); he wouldn't walk to Time out. Any NORMAL child would have been reprimanded and sent back to class. Our kids' behaviors are under the microscope in some districts purely for the reason to expell them. It was Hempfield's justification of a Life skill classroom. If my child is sooooooooo dangerous, then why do you want him with other spec. needs kids???? Why is it OK for him to act out in front of them, but not at a NORMAL child in a reg. class??? It all brings back horrible memories. Thank God we have a completely different district now.........I know it wasn't all my child.........it's the very people you are suppose to trust to educate your child. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Take care. Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
