A caring Broward School District

[Guest guest]

I am helping my neice's son who is 3 years old and in a Place Program

for a developmental delay who has a serious speech/language delay.

After the school's evaluation for speech and not articulation, they

have decided to help the child by putting him in a cluster of six

children and give him Speech for 1/2 an hour, twice per week. It

doesn't take more than simple math to figure that averages less than

4 1/2 minutes per child, per session.

If you ask me why a parent has to be compative with the school

district, I just gave you one. Unfortunately I was not able to be

there at the time of the Interim IEP but their decision will not

stand. Their professional certifications should be at risk.

I'm taking a defensive stand: no more phone calls; send email. No

more completing requests on their schedule; requests will be timely.

I'm a pacifist at heart but sometimes war is necessary.

Excuse my sacasim but it is directed in the right direction. I've

been kind in this area.
