[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 341758, member: 1233"] This all sounds frustrating. From both ends. I hope they will understand in your small town that you and your son are NOT the same person and that you are doing all you can. I also hope that they will do the IEP evaluation with-o the certified letter. Many smaller school districts will make it seem like a letter sent certified is not needed, that you will be aproblem if you push for your rights. It is a way they save money. Our school even tried it with me. I was there every day to drop off and pick up thank you and they still delayed his evaluation by over a month by pretending that I needed to sign a form to allow them to test him. I handed the principal a copy of info from wrightslaw and said it was bs. Esp that it took over a month to get it to me when I asked him about it twice a week. And that they sent the form home with my son in his backpack when NOTHING was handed to him because it got lost between his hand and his backpack. Even the regular weekly folder did not go to him but to me. So that was stuff they wanted ME to feel bad about and give them extra time. I told them they has 15 days left to finish the evaluation and we would meet the week it was done. Period. An IEP/504 or whatever, it WOULD be done then. They managed to do it in that time. I think some testing had already been done by the sp ed person with-o telling the principal because SHE knew the law and that I knew the law. I just hope they don't delay and delay and delay with your son. Often it is to save money because the testing and supports are not cheap. But that is NOT your problem. They shouldn't even bring that up to you. [/QUOTE]
