[QUOTE="svengandhi, post: 377440, member: 3493"] What reasons are they giving you for denying her an IEP? What have they put in writing about their reasons? I can't believe they are denying an IEP to a child like yours. I have FOUR kids with IEPs and combined they do not have the issues your one little girl does. This is making me so angry for you and for your daughter. The schools sometimes act like our children deliberately choose to be this way. I once told the school psychologist "Yeah, difficult child LOVES that other kids are afraid of him and nobody wants to play with him, he really gets a charge out of it..." Right. Have you looked into filing an appeal or a complaint with OCR? Have you exhausted your administrative remedies? I know if's difficult to sue but many SDs will back down because the costs of providing FAPE to an individual child with a unique situation are often less than litigating the action and taking the chance of setting an unfavorable precedent. Does her dad live in a more sped friendly SD? Could you get services for her there? Maybe the best thing to do is to send her to her homeroom on Tuesday and then immediately go in and talk to the guidance counselor/psychiatric, etc. and let them know. Maybe difficult child will make a friend in her new class, maybe the teacher is a good one for her, maybe her anxiety will calm down when she realizes that the other kids are nervous, too. Good luck.
