Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 All right Stacey! Congratulations. Now I guess you have to figure out how to swallow your disgust with these people and manage to work with them for your son's sake. I'm not even involved and I'm worked up about your situation! And for what it's worth, the squeaky wheel ALWAYS gets the grease - but who wants to spend their life being a squeaky wheel?? Why can't people just do their jobs??

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2001 Report Share Posted December 12, 2001 Well I called the district headquarters and asked them for a copy of their procedural guidelines that they put out to the school about what type of timelines are considered " reasonable. " I told them that the short story on my son is that he was screened by a official of the district prior to school starting and determined to need services and 4 months later has not received ANY services nor do I have a date for his IEP other than " next semester. " I told them I needed to know if the school was not following district policy or if the district was not following federal law. The lady called the school and low and behold they managed to reschedule his IEP with everyone there this Friday. Okay, so the squeaky wheel finally found someone with some oil. Thanks for the feedback. -Stacey of NM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a meeting at the school, with me on the speaker phone. They had a letter from 's Doc, and that was it. Of course, it was the learning specialist who wrote up the IEP-but there was no involvement of the psych department. Sandi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 OK, it's definitely time for me to do some more research on this topic. It's one that I've avoided since Autumn was in preschool and they only had 9 children in the class. They give her all the individual attention she needs, and her missing school didn't really matter. I can't afford a private school, not even taking her preschool money & moving it over to a tuition payment. All of our private schools here that are worth their weight in salt have been full for a year & we'd have to go on a 2 year waiting list. I've got to place that phone call to the director of nurses this week and see what she recommends. Thanks for all the advice! Ray, mother to Tabitha (age 7), Autumn, age 5 (IgG def., asthma, chronic sinusitis, and allergies), and Duncan (19 months) > It is also my understanding that an IEP carries more weight than a 504.

Do some digging.You need to file a compliant. It sounds like this school is breaking all kinds of laws. The school cannot deny services due to "it was the special needs education that made them go into 5 million in dept". They can't cease your child's IEP, they are required by law to offer it at the current campus, or find a campus that offers it or find somewhere else like private school and pay for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I will just post my favorite website resource for when I am coming up on an IEP. It is a goldmine of good links, including my favorite "parent attachment" info. http://www.orgsites.com/md/asperger_syndrome_info/_pgg4.php3 It applies to all IEP related things, not just Asperger's. Jane Mama to 7 (ASD) and 4 (NT) -- IEP What are some good questions to be asking during an IEP meeting?
