Complaints and agencies denial they heard of any

[Guest guest]

I have to say that it sounds like Alzheimer's to me. Not sure how they

could possibly NOT know parents are complaining while we:

2004 - filed TEA complaint

2005 - complaint was finally resolved after one whole year (they had massive

staff shortage and hence 1 year delay vs. 60 deadline)

2006 - ongoing failure to implement the TEA directive to provide

compensatory services for failures cited in our 2004 complaint (we prevailed

on all 8-10 areas)

2006 - filed OCR complaint

2006 - went to mediation for several issues and again one was failure to

provide the compensatory services from 2004 complaint

2007 - went to 2nd mediation

2007 - went through Due Process

2008 - DP decision found district did deny our son FAPE - again compensatory

services

2008 - filed FERPA complaint

SO I guess that should be something that would counter the agencies saying

that parents are not complaining. Heck after all this, Swain TEA SPED

complaint and the TEA legal department probably have me on speed dial since

we are all on first name basis. Unbelievable - and complaints, mediations,

due process, etc. are all tracked by TEA. One parent request information

for the last several years from TEA on all these issues that were filed.

And they sent her a spreadsheet. Sounds to me like someone needs to start

questioning TEA about whether those constitute complaints or are they

looking for something else to call a " complaint " .

I think Kathy Clayton has short (and long) term memory loss. There have

been complaints about this.
