[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 667808, member: 1550"] Advocates are free. Call your Dept. of Public Education in your state. Ask for contact with the advocate in your area. This is the only way we got all the accommodations we wanted. She had taken a few school districts to court and won and our school district did not want a piece of her. Cost us nothing and are in every state. They are not on the side of the school district. They are on your side. I'm not sure you couldn't get accelerated class accommodations for your son since he seems to have a medical problem. You could and certainly should try. And my daughter got accommodations on time of all testing. Didn't seem to bother our school that much...then, again, we had an advocate. Never ever walk into an IEP meeting without an advocate. You walk in alone, then you get what the school dishes out to you only. Again, advocates are free to the parent. Good luck!!!! [/QUOTE]
