[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 438511"] I agree with seriously. Don't leave a stone unturned. I had to specifically ask for a reading comprehension assessment because the assessment tool my SD uses does not delve deep enough. Turned out my son had many issues with reading that the basic assessment didn't even hint at. If you don't agree with their assessments, you have the right to request (in writing) for an [B]Independent Education Evaluation[/B]. This means they would have to pay for someone outside their SD to do the assessments again. Just an idea but is it possible for you to talk to the staff at this other school to get ideas about what they would do for her if she were to go there? If you could get that and then (without telling your school where you got the info) go into the IEP meeting when they review the new assessments with all those "ideas" for accommodations spelled out. It might open the doors a little if you "know what you're talking about". Good luck and be gentle with her. If her anxiety is as bad as it sounds, personally, I would keep her home except for Wednesday. Imagine what she is going through. I suffered from severe anxiety for over 2 years and it is a nightmare and I was an adult and I couldn't handle it. I really feel for her. Anyway, that JMHO. [/QUOTE]
