[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 556378, member: 1550"] I think you should give your daughter a new, intensive updated evaluation (at her age a neuropsychologist evaluation) to nail down her difficulties so that they can be explained to the IEP group and included in her IEP. Is she cognitively challenged? That is different than learning disabilities. If she just has LDs...what are they and how can the school help her? I think you need very detailed information, both for the school and for yourself. I would definitely go the advocate route. Call your Dept. of Public Education and ask for the free parent advocate who works in your area. This advocate has no ties to the school district and will be on your side and your daughter's side, along with knowing all the state laws so that the SD can't get away with anything that isn't legal. Every state has free advocates that work independently from the school district. Call and ask for the Special Needs Advocate. Good luck and keep us posted. [/QUOTE]
