Conference- working with your child's school

[Guest guest]

Designing your child's educational plan, meetings with administrators,

working with the teacher- Such a critical time in your child's life but so many

questions, so much work to get done and at times, so many roadblocks.

Coming November 12/13th to Dallas/Fort Worth:( from  www.featnt.org  )

Don' t miss two full days of discussion on working with your local school for

a positive result for your child. Experts will be on hand to discuss problem

solving as you plan your child's future in his or her school. There will be

alot of question and answer, handouts and a casual, positive atmosphere. Topics

include:

Making Your Child’s Individualized Educational Plan and Attending ARD

Meetings

Working With Your Child’s Teacher to Ensure Maximum Success  

What do I do now? What if problems arise?

Also on hand, world renound attorney Mayerson, with the latest

information on a huge successful case just won in August that effects all

parents( see

below):

" On the issue of " prerequiste skills, Jim Mulick, McEachin and I had the

pleasure of working several years ago on a matter involving a child in Utah

who was then in a mainstream preschool, supported in school by a behaviorally

trained and supervised ABA provider, with additional ABA intervention at

home.

It was quite a long saga, but in August of this year, the 10th Circuit Court

of Appeals (the level just below the U.S. Supreme Court) held that the

child's

parents were entitled to reimbursment for the ABA supports on the theory that

the mainstream preschool was THIS child's least restrictive environment, and

that she was making very nice progress in that setting BECAUSE of the ABA

supports secured at school and at home.  How refreshing it is when a court

that

important " gets it. "

will be on the Today Show in December with Couric to talk about

avoiding due process. But he'll spend a full day in Dallas Fort Worth visiting

with parents about working with their school districts.

> " I'm of course excited about being on the Today Show, but there are obvious

> limitations to what you can accomplish in six minutes, whereas the FEAT fall

> conference will provide parents with in depth quality information. "

> ~ Mayerson
