Emergency Removals from School

[Guest guest]

I've had NUMEROUS problems this year with the school doing "emergency removals" of my 8 year old with AS - practically everytime she has a meltdown - even if the meltdown is somewhat mild, or she gets past it.

I've found the miracle cure for this - and wanted to share. I'm in Ohio...so if you need help, support, or have questions regarding school and your child - contact the Ohio Coalition for the Education of Children with Disabilities. Other states may have something similar.

I contacted the Coalition when the school was trying to force us into home tutoring, so that my daughter wouldn't be there, and they wouldn't have to deal with her. Once I told the Principal that I had contacted the Coalition - removals were over. Not once since then - and I know that my child wasn't instantly cured of AS. As I spoke to the Parent Mentor in my county, she said, "The school does NOT want the Coalition involved."

Using the Coalition is free - and they have a great website. Just google them. I hope this can help someone else.

Have a happy Sunday everyone!!
