[QUOTE="JJJ, post: 380377, member: 1169"] I would agree, you should be able to get an IEP for behavior relating to her disability. Clearly hitting her teacher interferes with her ability to participate in class. Was she diagnosed by an M.D.?? If so, get something in writing from the MD listing the diagnosis and probable issues it will present in school. Then you can pursue an IEP under the OHI (other health impairment) category. Yes, the "label" will be in her file at school. However, very few people at the school are allowed access to that file (it is suppose to be on a need to know basis); she's very young and if she gets supports now, she may not need to still be on an IEP in older grades; her whole file does not follow her to high school, so unless you are with a unit school district, the high school will not have most of the paperwork; none of it follows her to college unless she took modified classes in high school (and then it would just indicate 'modified' on her transcripts, it shouldn't detail anything). "Not wanting to label" is code for "not wanting to fund services". There really is almost all pluses and almost no negatives to getting her appropriate services--which require a label. [/QUOTE]
