[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 344537, member: 59"] I have been told the same thing whenever I met with the school. They were very surprised at how involved we were and how informed we wanted to be in our child's progress and success. difficult child still gets comments from school personnel about how supportive her parents are and how she should be counting her blessings because that just doesn't happen often, and she is no longer in the school system. Sadly I think that there are many cuts going on across the board that are negatively impacting some population, not just our education system. Our state is cutting back on services for the elderly and disabled. Programs all around are being cut. Our state has mandated that we have all day kinderagrten in every school district. The schools have all asked for and received waivers because they have neither the space or the funds to hire additional teachers. So what good is that mandate? Where does the money come from? There isn't an unlimited source. We have to figure out how to do better with what we have. But somewhere someone is not going to be happy. I would like it to be the dishonest ones (I won't name any particular group) who spend our tax money to profit themselves and their causes. Nancy [/QUOTE]
