You may remeber in a post I wrote a week or so ago that I was crying because of SOOO many things, one being that the jewish day school my children go to granted us no financial aid and I could not figure out how we would pay for both kids. I was very upset that I may have to take my daughter out.
The director, whom I get along very well with, needed to make me aware of a policy they have. A policy that only effects a situation with one Special Education child and one "normal" child.
If you take one child out of the school (the non-special needs child) then you must take the other child out (the special needs one).
So for my daughter, the children in her current fifth grade class with siblings that are not special needs may now go on to any middle school they choose (private, public, charter).
BUT my daughter does not have that choice unless i take the Special Education sibling out too.
For those of you who are jewish does that sound KOSHER or mench like and for those not Jewish does that sound legal???
Even though I want my daughter to continue there I am MAD about this policy.
Thought????
