Re: Re: son locked out of school

[Guest guest]

First of all, this is illegal. Does your child have an IEP with a behavior

plan? If not, call a team meeting and ask for a functional behavior assessment.

Once this is done, a behavior plan will be put into place to insure that this

does not happen. Perhaps it will be that he needs to go somewhere safe where he

can decompose, like a resource room. by locking him out they are denying him

access to the general curriculum and his right to FAPE. They must deal with

him, that is the law. if they can't, they have to find an alternative placement

for him.

My son has an IEP, but it does not cover a behavior plan. The last IEP

meeting it the question was raised, from my sons other program that picks him up

after school 12 to 2pm. But nothing was done. We mentioned that Mikey should

have a place to go that he can let off and steam, and gather himself. But I

guess no one is heard what we said, well maybe they will now.

Thanks Patty.

My son's meltdowns are to me more loud than anything else. If he is

having a meltdown and people are trying to hold him in place or and everyone is

looking at him it makes him a lot worst. I guess the police tried to stand in

front of him to block him and my son started to push him. My son would never

punch. slap etc... he just gets really stress out and starts stimming, bring his

hands up to his face and yelling like an animal stuck in a trap and it can

get very loud. When he is home and he does this, I don't look at him in the

eyes, and I tell him hands down, Breath Mikey breath and I blow into his face,

or

I ask him " Mikey were is my hug'? and he tries to stop himself to bend over

to me to give a hug, and then goes back to walking back and fourth yelling.

Most of the time it only takes 15mins.

I spoke with the school, and told them we need to have a meeting to up date

his IEP, to get a behavioral assessment done, so the plan is for next week.

Thanks
