[QUOTE="Christy, post: 164270, member: 225"] I homeschooled difficult child this past year. The reason we did this was that he was not learning anything in school. He had an iep and a bip and was in a self-contained ED classroom but he had frequent tantrums and often ended up in the support room or the quiet room. The end result, he lost considerable ground academically. Despite the small class size (6-8) and the classroom assistant, someone was always have behavior issues and little teaching took place. For the last two terms of his 2ng grade year and for all 4 terms of his third grade year, it was indicated on his report card that he was not making sufficient progress on his iep goals and then the box that says, behavior affecting progress was checked. I am not arguing that he has behavior problems but can this be an excuse for not teaching him? Working one on one this year, we made significant progress on his academic goals. Has it been easy? NO! In fact, we are getting to a point where we are add odds far too often for it to be effective and it is too hard to be in both the role of mom and teacher so we are thinking of putting him back in school next year. Now finally my question, in the age of no child left behind, can the school use behavior as an excuse for a child not making progress or does the school have to take steps to see that the student learns (provide one to one support, tutoring services, a special school placement, etc...)?
