[QUOTE="buddy, post: 515936, member: 12886"] I agree with the other posts. Once you send a registered letter then there is record of a suspected disability which protects her from expulsion. In your IEP request ask for all areas to be evaluated including behavior because the mandate is to write positive behavior goals and plans. (What she needs to learn not what she needs to stop doing ) so she can feel better about herself and be more successful. You need to be on top of who does this and which tests ...they need your signature on the proposed assessment plan so if you want come here and let us know what they suggest and we can give you thoughts and ideas ... Your choice of course. We too had increase in aggression on an ssri medication. Maybe time to let them know you're thinking this medication isn't helping. I suspect (mho) she is under-aware of how her actions really affect others and what really matters is how upset she is in those moments. Not in a mental illness-she is a danger, kind of way ...it is very common for kids with emotional delays no matter the cause to struggle with this. Kids like many of ours need specific & direct training to learn to identify feelings how to handle frustration etc. & what to do to make better choices /problem solve. Trust me on this....you are not alone and my sons first suspension happened in grade K! It's just bad practice to think a kid will suddenly improve from a suspension. It only punishes the parents. She will do better when she can... With support. [/QUOTE]
