Re: I spoke with you today- can anyone help?

[Guest guest]

My SD offers one program for ESY--my 7dd is always in it. Its a school that she

does not attend the rest of the year. I have asked about other options and they

said-- " this is what we offer, anything else--YOU pay for " . I'd love to hear if

you get any answers about this...it seems anything with the word " camp " in

it--they are not going to pay for. good luck. If you do get them to--please,

please let me know!

I know my dd spends six more weeks of the summer sitting in anohter

classroom-but her teachers have told me they already fwd her work to be done for

those six weeks to make sure she can keep up next year. She is doing a couple

free special needs camps when school is done and we're taking her out for one

week to go to the beach.

11. Do ESY services have to be provided in a classroom?

No. ESY services may not necessarily be provided in a classroom or

school setting. The location and delivery of program services may be

provided in the home or at an alternative location (such as the local

YMCA, library, Boys & Girls Club, etc.) taking into consideration the

identified individual needs of the student in an appropriate

environment.

12. When is ESY not an appropriate decision?

The purpose of providing ESY services to students with disabilities is

to maintain identified skills to prevent or avoid substantial loss of

previously acquired or emerging skills or behavior. With this objective

it is expected that not every student will be in need of ESY services.

13. What happens if there is disagreement regarding ESY?

Parents and school districts are encouraged to resolve matters of

disagreement. Mediation has proven to be an effective method of dispute

resolution. Upon request, the New Jersey Department of Education will

assign an impartial mediator to assist the parties in resolving

differences. Mediation is voluntary; therefore, the participants

(parent(s), guardians, and school district) must agree to mediation. In

addition, parents and school districts can always exercise their right

to request a due process hearing.

More information regarding mediation or a due process hearing can be

obtained by contacting the New Jersey Department of Education, Office of

Special Education Programs, at (609) 292-0147.

here in iowa. We provide the setting in my in home daycare for 1 child so it

can also be provided at daycare.
